The work function of a metal M is 6.3 eV . The wavelength of the incident radiation required to just eject the electrons from its surface (in nm ) is
Options
- A102
- B330
- C197
- D310
Correct answer
C. 197
Step-by-step solution
The work function of the metal M is 6.3 eV . aligned 1 eV & =1.6 10⁻¹⁹ ~J E & =6.3 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ ~J & =10.08 10⁻¹⁹ ~J aligned The wavelength of radiation can be calculated. Using the formula, aligned E & = h c & = h c E = 6.6 10⁻³⁴ Js 3.0 10^8 ~ms ⁻¹ 10.08 10⁻¹⁹ ~J & =1.9642 10⁻⁷ ~m & =197 ~nm aligned
