Answer

512kj/mole

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the work function of gold metal in kJ/mol if light with λ = 234 nm is necessary to eject electrons?

The energy can be calculated using below expresion;

E = hc/λ

Where h= planks constant= 6.626 x 10^-34

c= speed of light= 3 x 10^

λ= wavelength

hc= (6.626 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^ 8)

=
