By using photons of specific wavelengths, chemists can dissociate gaseous H-I to produce H atoms with accurately known speeds. When H-I dissociates, the H atoms move away rapidly, whereas the relatively heavy I atoms move little. hint use the Average Bond Energies

(a) What is the longest wavelength (in nm) that can dissociate a molecule of H-I?
