If light with a wavelength of 515 nm is shown on a metal surface, and photoelectrons (electrons ejected from the surface) have a
Debora [2.8K]

The binding energy of the electrons (also known as the work function of the surface) is determined as 2.43 x 10⁻¹⁹ J.

<h3>Binding energy of the electrons</h3>

The binding energy of the electrons is also known as work function of the metal and it is calculated as follows;

Ф = E - K.E

where;

Ф = hf - 86.2 kJ/mol

Ф = hc/λ - 86.2 kJ/mol

Ф = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸ )/515 x 10⁻⁹   -  86.2 kJ/mol

Ф = 3.86 x 10⁻¹⁹ J - (86200 J/mol)/(6.02 x 10²³)

Ф = 3.86 x 10⁻¹⁹ J - 1.43  x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Ф = 2.43 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

An uncharged atom of mercury has an atomic number of 80 and an atomic mass of 200. This atom has ________ protons, ________ neut
SCORPION-xisa [38]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

             This atom has 80 protons, 120 neutrons and 80 electrons.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Number of Protons:

                               As the number of protons present in the nucleus are equal to the atomic number therefore. As given, the atomic number is 80 therefore, Hg contains 80 protons respectively.

Number of Electrons:

                                 As given in statement, Hg is not carrying any type of charge. It means this atom is neutral in nature. Which means, it is carrying the same number of electrons as the number of protons in order to give a neutral atom. Therefore, it contains 80 electrons.

Number of Neutrons:

                                 Number of neutrons can be calculated using following formula,

                  No. of Neutrons  =  Atomic Mass - Number of Protons

As,

                                    Atomic Mass  =  200

So,

                                    No. of Neutrons  =  200 - 80

                                    No. of Neutrons  =  120
