What is the kinetic energy of the emitted electrons when cesium is exposed to UV rays of frequency 1.0×1015Hz?

1 answer:

3 0

In order to emit electrons, the cesium will have to absorb photons. Each photon will knock out one electron by transferring its energy to the electron. Therefore, by the principle of energy conservation, the energy of the removed electron will be equal to the energy of the incident photon. That energy is calculated using Planck's equation:

E = hf

E = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ * 1 x 10¹⁵
E = 6.63 x 10⁻¹⁹ Joules

The electron will have 6.63 x 10⁻¹⁹ Joules of kinetic energy

Which type of bonding is characterized by overlapping orbitals that allow outer electrons of atoms to move about freely througho

Sonja [21]

Answer:

D metallic

Explanation:

The chemical bonding which rises from electrostatic attractive force between the conduction electrons and the positively charged metal ions is called metallic bonding.

It is sharing of the free electrons among the structure of the positively charged ions which are known as cations.

In this type of bonding, these free electrons freely move in the crystal mattice of the metal.

The bonding accounts for properties of metals, such as ductility, strength, electrical and thermal conductivity and resistivity and luster.

The functional groups in an organic compound can frequently be deduced from its infrared absorption spectrum. A compound, C5H10O

vova2212 [387]

Answer:The functional groups in an organic compound can frequently be deduced from its infrared absorption spectrum. A compound, C5H10O2, exhibits strong, broad absorption across the 2500-3200 cm^1 region and an intense absorption at 1715 cm'^-1. Relative absorption intensity: (s)=strong, (m)-medium, (w) weak. What functional class(cs) docs the compound belong to List only classes for which evidence is given here. Attach no significance to evidence not cited explicitly. Do not over-interpret exact absorption band positions. None of your inferences should depend on small differences like 10 to 20 cm^1. The functional class(es) of thla compound is(are) alkane (List only if no other functional class applies.) alkene terminal alkyne internal alkyne arene alcohol ether amine aldehyde or ketone carboxylic acid ester nitr
