When a beam of photons of a suitable frequency strikes the metal surface, electrons are emitted from metal. This process is called photoelectric effect. The effect occurs when energy of incident beam is greater than that of the work function. Kinetic energy of photoelectron varies with

When light of frequency nu incidents on two metallic plates A and B photo electrons are emitted . If the work function of A is more than that of B the correct curve of the following curves drawn between stopping potential V and incident frequency nu is

The amount of energy released when an electron is added to an isolated gaseous atom to produce a monovalent anion is called electron affinity or first electron affinity or electron gain enthalpy. The first electron is given a negative sign as the addition of an electron to a neutral atom is an exoergic process. The addition of electron to A^(-1) requires energy to overcome the force of repulsion. Thus, the second electron affinity is an endoergic process. The magnitude of electron affinity depends on a number of factors such as (i) atomic size (ii) effective nuclear charge (iii) screening effect (iv) half and fully filled orbitals and (v) shape of orbital. In general, electron affinity increases as the atomic radii decrease in a period. However, there are exceptions when the atoms have stable configurations. In a group, electron affinity decreases as the size increases. However, the members of 3rd period have somewhat higher values than the members in the 2nd period of the same subgroups.
