The ionization energy of rubidium is $403 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol} .$ Do x-rays with a wavelength of $85 \mathrm{nm}$ have sufficient energy to ionize rubidium?
The first ionization energy, E, of a boron atom is 8.01×10^2 kJ/mol. What is the wavelength of light, in nanometers, that is just sufficient to ionize a boron atom? Refer to the values for constants. λ = nm
