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.
