Estimate the binding energy of a kcl molecule by calculating the electrostatic potential energy when the k+ and cl− ions are at their stable separation of 0.28 nm. assume each has a charge of magnitude 1.0e.

binding energy, E = 0.513 eV

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance between ions,

Charge,

Binding energy can be calculated using potential energy as :

or

E = 0.513 eV

So, the binding energy of a KCl molecule is 0.513 eV. Hence, this is the required solution.

the answer is alpha particles hope i you
