Consider the noble gas xenon. (c) The energy required to completely remove the outermost electron from the excited xenon atom is 369 kJ/mol, almost identical to that of cesium (376 kJ/mol). Explain.
- Red light with a wavelength of 660 nm from a 3.0 mW diode laser shines on a solar cell. (b) How much current (in amperes) flows in the circuit of the solar cell if all the photons are absorbed by the cell and each photon produces one electron?
