Answer:
a) 1.866 × 10 ⁻¹⁹ J b) 3.685 × 10⁻¹⁹ J
Explanation:
the constants involved are
h ( Planck constant) = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ m² kg/s
Me of electron = 9.109 × 10 ⁻³¹ kg
speed of light = 3.0 × 10 ⁸ m/s
a) the Ek ( kinetic energy of the dislodged electron) = 0.5 mu²
Ek = 0.5 × 9.109 × 10⁻³¹ × ( 6.40 × 10⁵ )² = 1.866 × 10 ⁻¹⁹ J
b) Φ ( minimum energy needed to dislodge the electron ) can be calculated by this formula
hv = Φ + Ek
where Ek = 1.866 × 10 ⁻¹⁹ J
v ( threshold frequency ) = c / λ where c is the speed of light and λ is the wavelength of light = 358.1 nm = 3.581 × 10⁻⁷ m
v = ( 3.0 × 10 ⁸ m/s ) / (3.581 × 10⁻⁷ m ) = 8.378 × 10¹⁴ s⁻¹
hv = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ m² kg/s × 8.378 × 10¹⁴ s⁻¹ = 5.551 × 10⁻¹⁹ J
5.551 × 10⁻¹⁹ J = 1.866 × 10 ⁻¹⁹ J + Φ
Φ = 5.551 × 10⁻¹⁹ J - 1.866 × 10 ⁻¹⁹ J = 3.685 × 10⁻¹⁹ J
Answer: c.They have a unique set of properties that can be used as identifiers.
Explanation:
Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass.
Compounds can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions.
Example: Water 
Compounds have different properties than the elements it is made up of.
Thus the most accurate description of compounds is that they have a unique set of properties that can be used as identifiers.
Answer:
The fact that most alpha particles went straight through the foil is because the atom is mostly empty space.
Those that passed straight through did so because they didn't encounter any nuclei.
