उत्तर

Let the maximum work function of the metal be W.

The energy liberated in the Balmer Series (E) is given by 

`E = 13.6(1/n_1^2 - 1/n_2^2)`

For maximum work function, maximum energy of Balmer's series is taken.

Now, n1 = 2, n1 = ∞​

`therefore E = 13.6(1/2^2)`

=` 13.6 xx 1/4 =3.4  eV`

Here,

W = E

Thus, maximum work function of metal is 3.4 eV.
