Application +4 | -1
When electromagnetic radiation of wavelength 300 nm300 \mathrm{~nm} falls on the surface of sodium, electrons are emitted with a kinetic energy of 1.68×105 J mol−11.68 \times 10^5 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}. What is the minimum energy needed to remove an electron from sodium? What is the maximum wavelength that will cause a photoelectron to be emitted?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
517 nm
Option A (517 nm) is correct because it is the maximum wavelength calculated using the photoelectric effect equation and the given kinetic energy of the emitted electrons.
