In order to comply with the requirement that energy be conserved, Einstein showed in the photoelectric effect that the energy of

a photon (hv) absorbed by a metal is the sum of the work function (Φ), the minimum energy needed to dislodge an electron from the metal’s surface, and the kinetic energy (Eκ) of the electron: hv = Φ + Eκ. When light of wavelength 358.1 nm falls on the surface of potassium metal, the speed (u) of the dislodged electron is 6.403105 m/s.
(a) What is Ek(1/2 mu²) of the dislodged electron?

Based on these findings, Einstein proposed that light behaved as a stream of photons with an energy.

Kinetic energy, Ek = ½mv^2 where m is mass and v is velocity.

Ek = m[v^2 – u^2]/2 and assuming u = 0,

Ek = ½mv^2

<h3>What is the photoelectric effect?</h3>

When light shines on a metal, electrons are ejected from the metal's surface, causing the photoelectric effect. This is referred to as photoemission, and the electrons released from the metal are referred to as photoelectrons. Photoelectrons behave and have the same properties as ordinary electrons. The photo- prefix simply signifies that incoming light has released electrons from a metal surface.

To explain the photoelectric effect, 19th-century scientists hypothesised that the fluctuating electric field of the incoming light wave heated the electrons and drove them to vibrate, eventually freeing them off the metal surface.

What is the molar mass of just the O in CO2?
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

16 g/mol

Explanation:

In CO2, it means we have 1 mole of carbon and 2 moles of oxygen.

However, we want to find the molar mass of just a single mole of oxygen.

Now, from tables of values of elements in electronic configuration, the molar mass of oxygen is usually approximately 16 g/mol.

In essence the molar mass is simply the atomic mass in g/mol

What is the molar mass of Na2CO3? 60.0 g/mol 106.0 g/mol 118.0 g/mol 141.0 g/mol
Dmitry [639]

Answer is: the molar mass od sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃) is 106.0 g/mol.

M(Na₂CO₃) = 2 · Ar(Na) + Ar(C) + 3 · Ar(O).

M(Na₂CO₃) = 2 · 23 + 12 + 3 · 16 · g/mol.

M(Na₂CO₃) = 46 + 12 + 48 · g/mol.

M(Na₂CO₃) = 106 g/mol; molar mass of sodium carbonate.

Ar is relative atomic mass (the ratio of the average mass of atoms of a chemical element to one unified atomic mass unit) of an element.
