How many moles of ATP could be synthesised at 100% efficiency by a photosynthetic organism upon absorption of 1 einstein of red light (700 nm) a)0.1 mole of ATP/ einsteinb)5 mole of ATP/ einsteinc)50 mole of ATP/ einsteind)100 mole of ATP/ einstein​

Answer»

ein of red light synthesize approx  5 moles of ATP (option (B))Step by step explanation:According to Einstein's  photoelectric equation                                                                     (Equation 1)whereE =  Einstein energy of corresponding wavelength h = PLANK' s constant = c = speed of light = and λ = Wavelength  = 700 nm     (given)So 1 Einstein of red light = It is APPROXIMATELY equal to 40.8 k cal We know that 1  MOLE of ATP gives 7.5 kcal energySo in 1 einstein of red light the number of moles of ATP = So (Option (b)) is correct.
