Calculate the wavelength (in nm) of light with energy 1.57 × 10−20 J per photon.

For light of wavelength 430 nm, calculate the number of photons per joule. Enter your answer in scientific notation.

Determine the binding energy (in eV) of a metal if the kinetic energy possessed by an ejected electron (using one of the photons with wavelength 430 nm) is 3.33 × 10−19 J

Steel and iron are often 'galvanized', or coated with a thin layer of zinc metal to prevent corrosion (iron rusts but zinc does not). What is the longest wavelength of light (in nm) that can eject electrons from zinc metal? (i.e. assume the electron's kinetic energy is very close to zero.) The work function of zinc = 4.3 eV and 1 electron-volt (eV) = 1.602*10^-19 J.

Consider a solar cell with no dye where TiO_2 is instead the light-absorbing species. The energy required to excite an electron in TiO_2 is 3.21 eV.

a. Calculate the maximum wavelength of light required to excite an electron in TiO2. Hint: 1 eV = 1.602 × 10−19 J. Report your answer in nm.

b. Given your answer to part a, why would a TiO2-only solar cell be much less practical than the one you constructed?
