An electron is ejected from a Li atom after being struck by a photon with the energy of 757.8 kJ/mol. If the ejected electron has an energy of 237.6 kJ/mol, calculate the ionization energy for the ejected electron.
we know
Ionisation energy + Kinetic energy = total energy
therefore
Ionisation energy = total energy - kinetic energy
= 757.8 KJ/mol - 237.6 KJ/mol
= 520.2KJ/mol
