We observe that;
o A metal disc is placed at the top which is
connected to a gold foil (thin layered)
through a metal piece which is useful in
transferring the charge ( electrons &
photons)
PROCEDURE:
Test for CHARGE:
o Test the electroscope for which charge is
present in the electroscope.
o For example, take a test preferable charged
electroscope is POSITIVELY
CHARGED.
Switching on to elements:
Select the metallic elements to be placed
in the top of the container.
PRIODIC TABLE
OBSERVATION:
When monochromatic ray is passed the
gold leaf which is positive charged both
attract each other. This implies that
negative charge has passed to it.

GROUP17 DEFLECTION ATTRACTION

Cl -
Br -
I -
At -
REASON:
The difference in the attraction of the gold foil is due
to some of the properties in which each element is
unique from others.
The mass number , atomic number , size of the atomic
shell/orbit.
This influences some properties :
1. IONIZATION ENTHALPY
This property of
atoms actually influence the
ejection of photoelectrons in
the experiment.
To be noted:
There is also a variation in the Group itself.
It has been found that :
1. The 1st Group elements have
less Ionization Enthalpy and
thus producing more
electrons.
Li Na K Rb Cs Fr
Be Mg Ca Sr Ba Ra
Ionisation Energy Increases
CONCLUSION:
By experimenting it is found that there is a variance in the
amount of electrons emitted according to metals considered.
The element which produces more electrons on
photoelectric effect : CESIUM .
This is because Cesium has the least Ionization Enthalpy
and all other characters discussed.
Francium is not considered as it is unstable and rare to
be found in free state.
