Problem

O2\text{O}_2 undergoes photochemical dissociation into one normal oxygen atom and one oxygen atom, 1.967 eV1.967 \text{ eV} more energetic than normal. The dissociation of O2\text{O}_2 into two normal atoms of oxygen requires 498 kJ mol−1498 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}. What is the maximum wavelength effective for photochemical dissociation of O2\text{O}_2?
