Describe the results in terms of the electron-sea model


 

The work function (φ) of a metal is the minimum energy required to remove an electron from its surface.
1. Discuss is it easier to remove an electron from a gaseous silver atom or from the surface of solid silver (φ=7.59 x 10^(-19) J; IE =731 kJ/mol))?
2. Describe the results in terms of the electron-sea model of the metallic bonding.
