The maximum wavelength that an electromagnetic wave can have and still eject electrons from a metal surface is 459 nm. What is t

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

2.7067 eV

Explanation:

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s$

c = Speed of light = $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

$\lambda_0$ = Threshold wavelength = 459 nm

Work function is given by

$W_0=\frac{hc}{\lambda_0}\\\Rightarrow W_0=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{459\times 10^{-9}}\\\Rightarrow W_0=4.33072\times 10^{-19}\ J$

Converting to eV

$1\ J=\frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV$

$4.33072\times 10^{-19}\ J=4.33072\times 10^{-19}\times \frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV=2.7067\ eV$

The work function W0 of this metal is 2.7067 eV

In which changes of state do atoms lose energy

Anika [276]

Yeah, it's every state. Atoms need a certain quanta of energy to jump to each state of energy, and therefore change state depending on how much energy is absorbed and/or released. This applies to all states of matter.

neonofarm [45]

I know I'm a bit late but just in case you still need some of the answers.

1: Oxygen
2: Change in shape
3: Water breaking down into hydrogen and oxygen
4: I think it's Milk but I might be wrong.

I might be wrong about some of them, sorry it's not much.
