Quantum Theory Light as a Particle Quantum concept: Matter can gain or lose energy in small specific amounts called quanta. Quanta: minimum amount of energy that can be gained or lost by an atom
Photoelectric Effect - Einstein Electrons (photoelectrons) are emitted from a metal s surface when a certain energy light shines on the surface. Photon is a massless particle that carries a quantum of energy. If light was a wave, photoelectric effect would NOT be observed.

(E i, i, i) Threshold energy, frequency, wavelength the required radiation to eject an electron dictated by a surface. (E t, t, t) Kinetic energy (KE) energy something possesses due to its motion.
