What do we mean when we say that it requires the particle nature of radiation i.e., photons, to explain photoelectric or Compton effect?
I don't understand which particle nature is used to explain these experiments. We cannot say that the momentum and energy are distinctive properties of a particle. Waves, too, have these properties.
So the question is which particle aspect is relevant for explaining the above-mentioned experiments? How do I make it understandable to a High school student?
