What is the kinetic energy of the emitted electrons when cesium is exposed to UV rays of frequency 1.90×1015Hz?
Express your answer in joules to three significant figures.
It is not 9.17×10−19 J or 12.589 x 10-19 J
By using the following formula, you can calculate the kinetic energy of the emitted electron:
KE=E−ϕ=hν−hν0
where h=6.63×10−34 J⋅s is Planck's constant, ν=1.90×1015Hz is the given frequency, and ν0=9.39×1014 Hz is your answer from Part A. The threshold frequency ν0 of cesium is 9.39×1014 Hz
Photoelectron spectroscopy applies the principle of the photoelectric effect to study orbital energies of atoms and molecules. High-energy radiation (usually UV or X-ray) is absorbed by a sample and an electron is ejected. The orbital energy can be calculated from the known energy of the radiation and the measured energy of the electron lost. The following energy differences were determined for several electron transitions:
ΔE2 →1 = 4.098 ×10−17 J
ΔE3 →1 = 4.854 × 10−17 JΔE5 → 1 = 5.242 ×10−17 J
ΔE4 → 2 = 1.024 ×10−17 J Calculate the energy change and the wavelength of a photon emitted in the following transitions. Enter your answers in scientific notation. Use 6.626 ×10−34 J·s for Planck's constant. (a) Level 3 to 2: ______J ______m (b) Level 4 to 1: _____J_____ m (c) Level 5 to 4: _____J
_____m
When a hydrogen atom absorbs a photon of electromagnetic radiation (EMR), the internal energy of the atom increases and one or more electrons may be energized into an excited state. The release of this extra energy as the excited state electron transitions back to a lower energy state results in the emission of a photon. These energy changes are responsible for the emission spectrum of hydrogen (shown below) and are described by the Bohr equation. delta?=−2.178×10−18 J(1?2final−1?2initial)ΔE=−2.178×10−18 J(1nfinal2−1ninitial2)

To ionize a hydrogen atom (forming a hydrogen ion), requires that the energy absorbed is sufficient to send the energized electron an infinite distance away from the nucleus (as shown by the ionization line in the image above). In other words, nfinal is equal to infinity.
