What is the work function of this metal? $\left( c = 3.00 \times 10 ^ { 8 } \right.$ $\mathrm { m } / \mathrm { s } , h = 6.626 \times 10 ^ { - 34 } \mathrm {~J} \cdot \mathrm { s } , 1 \mathrm { eV } = 1.60 \times 10 ^ { - 19 } \mathrm {~J}$ )

• A) \(3.54 \mathrm { eV }\)
• B) \(4.12 \mathrm { eV }\)
• C) \(3.05 \mathrm { eV }\)
• D) \(0.500 \mathrm { eV }\)
