A molecule absorbs a photon of wavelength 400 nm. 25 % of the absorbed energy is lost as heat and the rest is re-emitted as two photons of equal wavelength. The wavelength of each emitted photon is

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Energy re-emitted = 0.75 x hc/400. Each of the two photons carries half of it: .

nm.

Traps: 533 nm is for one photon carrying 75 %; 800 nm ignores the heat loss.

Answer: (C).
