The π electrons in benzene can be modeled as particles in a ring that follow Pauli’s exclusion principle. Given that the radius of benzene is 1.4 Å, the longest wavelength of light that is absorbed during an electronic transition in benzene is __________ nm. (Up to one decimal place. Use mₑ = 9.1×10⁻³¹ kg, h = 6.6×10⁻³⁴ J s, c = 3.0×10⁸ m s⁻¹)
