Best Answer

All metals will emit a photoelectric effect. However, alkali metals do so in the visible light spectrum, while other metals do so in near-ultraviolet light.

The alkali metals are: Lithium (Li), Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), Rubidium (Rb), Caesium (Cs), and Francium (Fr).

Which phenomenon demonstrates a particle nature of light?

The particle nature of light is illustrated by the photoelectric effect.


Why cesium and potassium used in photoelectric effect?

The ionization enthalpy of K and Cs is less than that of Li and therefore these metals easily lose electrons on exposure to light than lithium.That's the reason potassium and cesium are used in photoelectric cells rather than Cs.


Is there any importance in photoelectric effect?

One of the most revolutionary concepts in physics is the photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect occurs when radiant energy is impinged on various metals and electrons are ejected from the metal surface. The ejected photoelectrons have a certain kinetic energy which can be measured by the produced voltage. Photoelectric current cannot be explained by the wave theory as diffraction and interference can, however. The photoelectric effect is important because it revealed some of the limitations of the classical wave theory and it gave closer insight into the nature of light- namely the quantization as photons.

Can photoelectric effect be observed for all metals under same condition of incident light?

no , it cannot be observed in same conditions of incident light because, the threshold energy will be different for different metals.so in that particular threshold energy only the photoelectric effect for that metal can be observed.....
