Answer:


W=7.56* 10^(-19)\ J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The work function for silver is 4.73 eV.

We need to find the value of the work function from electron volts to joules.

We know that,


1\ eV=1.6* 10^(-19)\ J

For 4.73 eV,


4.73\ eV=1.6* 10^(-19)* 4.73\\\\=7.56* 10^(-19)\ J

So, the work function for silver is
7.56* 10^(-19)\ J.
