Asample of silver (with work function ? = 4.52 ev) is exposed to an ultraviolet light source (? = 200 nm), which results in the ejection of photoelectrons. what changes will be observed if: silver is replaced with copper (? = 5.10 ev) more photoelectrons ejected no photoelectrons are emitted fewer photoelectrons ejected more energetic photoelectrons (on average) less energetic photoelectrons (on average)

Why does the sun appear to be the brightest star in the sky? a- its apparent brightness is much greater than other stars. b- it burns more gas, making it brighter than any other star. c- it is the largest star in the galaxy, so it is the brightest star. d- its relative distance to earth is closer than the other stars.

Use this information to determine the number of calends electrons in the atoms. which of the following correctly compares the stability of the two atoms? a) both are unreactive b) both are highly reactive c) a is unreactive and d is reactive d) a is reactive and d is unreactive
