actual yield 
the experimental quantity, in grams, of product obtained in a 
reaction. 
Avogadro’s number 
the number of particles (6.022 x 10^23) of a substance in 1 mol of 
that substance. By definition, Avogadro’s number is equal to the 
number of carbon-12 atoms in exactly 12.00 g of carb...

Beta particle 
emission that is a high energy electron. the electron comes 
from a neutron so when it is emitted, the atomic number goes 
up by one, but the atomic mass remains the same

What is the threshold frequency? 
v0 = if you vary the frequency of the incident light, it is found 
that there is a certain minimum threshold frequency below 
which no electrons are emitted 
What happens if you are below the threshold frequency? 
No electrons are emitted regardless of the brightn...
