The work function of an element is the energyrequired to remove an electron from the surface of the solid. Thework function for palladium is 503.7kJ/mol (that is, it takes 503.7kJ of energy to remove 1 mole of electrons from 1mole of Pd atoms on the surface ofPd metal). What is the maximum wavelength of lightthat can remove an electron from an atom in palladiummetal?

It takes 208.4kJ of energy to remove 1 mole of electrons from an atom on the surface of rubidium metal. (1mol electrons = 6.022×10²³ electrons.) How much energy does it take to remove a single electron from an atom on the surface of solid rubidium? What is the maximum wavelength of light capable of doing this?
