An X-ray photon of wavelength 0.989 nm strikes a surface. The 
emitted electron has a kinetic energy of 969 eV. What is the 
binding energy of the electron in kJ>mol? 
[KE = 12 
mv2; 1 electron volt (eV) = 1.602 * 10 - 19 J]

A metal emits electrons when light of a certain frequency shines on it.

Correct, there is a threshold energy needed.

Classical mechanics failed to predict the radiation given off by blackbodies.

This statement is true but describes the phenomenon of blackbody radiation.

An electron is emitted by a metal after enough photons have been absorbed.

There is a threshold energy requirement for the photons.

Waves cancel each other out or build each other up.

This describes destructive and constructive interference.

None of the above accurately describes the photoelectric effect.

One of the choice does characterize the photoelectric effect.

 The photoelectric effect does not depend on the amplitude of the radiation used. 

Which best describes the photoelectric effect?

frequency of light is required to ionize sodium?

The work function of cesium metal is 188 kJ/mol, which corresponds to light with a wavelength of 637 nm. Which of the following will cause the smallest number of electrons to be ejected from cesium?
(a) High-amplitude wave with a wavelength of 500 nm 
(b) Low-amplitude wave with a wavelength of 500 nm 
(c) High-amplitude wave with a wavelength of 650 nm 
(d) Low-amplitude wave with a wavelength of 650 nm

Cesium metal is frequently used in photoelectric cells because the amount of energy necessary to eject electrons from a cesium surface is relatively small—only 206.5 kJ/mol. What wavelength of light in nanometers does this correspond to?

The amount of energy necessary to remove an electron from an atom is a quantity called the ionization energy, Ei. This energy can be measured by a technique called photoelectron spectroscopy, in which light of wavelength l is directed at an atom, causing an electron to be ejected. The kinetic energy of the ejected electron (Ek) is measured by determining its veloc-ity, v (Ek = mv2/2), and Ei is then calculated using the conservation of energy principle. That is, the energy of the incident light equals Ei plus Ek. What is the ionization energy of selenium atoms in kilojoules per mole if light with l = 48.2 nm produces electrons with a velocity of 2.371 * 106 m/s? The mass, m, of an electron is 9.109 * 10-31 kg.

Molybdenum metal must absorb radiation with an energy
higher than 7.22 * 10-19 J ('energy threshold') before it can
eject an electron from its surface via the photoelectric effect.
(a) What is the frequency threshold for emission of electrons?

An ultraviolet photon with a wavelength of 320 nm strikes a metal surface. The emitted electron has a kinetic energy of 1030 eV. What is the binding energy of the electron in kJ/mol? 1 electron volt (eV) = 1.602 x 10-19 J.

An argon ion laser puts out 5.0 W of continuous power at a
wavelength of 532 nm. The diameter of the laser beam is
5.5 mm. If the laser is pointed toward a pinhole with a diameter
of 1.2 mm, how many photons travel through the pinhole
per second? Assume that the light intensity is equally
distributed throughout the entire cross-sectional area of the

(a) Dim light with a wavelength of 320 nm 
(b) Dim light with a wavelength of 360 nm 
(c) Bright light with a wavelength of 360 nm 
(d) Bright light with a wavelength of 375 nm

Addressing a common misconception about the photoelectric effect

Photoelectric Basics

Molybdenum metal must absorb radiation with an energy 
higher than 7.22 * 10-19 J ('energy threshold') before it can 
eject an electron from its surface via the photoelectric effect. 
(b) What wavelength of radiation will provide a photon of this 
energy?

Photoelectric Effect Example 1

(a) What is the minimum frequency of light needed to remove an electron from chromium?

The work function of silver metal is 436 kJ/mol. What frequency of light is needed to eject electrons from a sample of silver?

Molybdenum metal must absorb radiation with an energy
higher than 7.22 * 10-19 J ('energy threshold') before it can
eject an electron from its surface via the photoelectric effect.
(c) If molybdenum is irradiated with light of wavelength
of 240 nm, what is the maximum possible velocity of
the emitted electrons?

The work function of calcium metal is kJ/mol, which corresponds to light with a wavelength of 432 nm. Which of the following will cause the largest number of electrons to be ejected from cesium?
(a) High-amplitude wave with a wavelength of 400 nm 
(b) Low-amplitude wave with a wavelength of 400 nm 
(c) High-amplitude wave with a wavelength of 450 nm 
(d) Low-amplitude wave with a wavelength of 450 nm

The emission of electrons depends on the energy of a single photon.

In order to meet the threshold frequency requirement, the photon must have the same or greater energy than the electron's binding energy.

The kinetic energy of the ejected electron equals the energy of the photon minus the binding energy of the electron.

The excess energy of the photon, beyond the binding energy, is transferred to the electron in the form of kinetic energy.

 The photoelectric effect is observed when electromagnetic radiation of certain frequency shines on a metal surface.  

Which of the following is true about the photoelectric effect?

Photoelectric Effect Example 2

Einstein's 1905 paper on the photoelectric effect was the
first important application of Planck's quantum hypothesis.
Describe Planck's original hypothesis, and explain how
Einstein made use of it in his theory of the photoelectric
effect.

A metal with a threshold frequency of 2.15 x 1015 s-1 emits an electron with a velocity of 7.03 x 106 m/s when radiation of 1.88 x 1015 s-1 strikes the metal's surface. Calculate the mass of the electron.
