Solution:

Energy of photon $=\frac{\text{h} \text{c}}{\lambda }\text{J}=\frac{\text{h} \text{c}}{\text{e} \lambda }\text{e}\text{V}$
$=\frac{6.625 \times 10^{- 34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}}{300 \times 10^{- 9} \times 1.602 \times 10^{- 19}}=4.14 \, \text{e}\text{V}$
For photoelectric effect to occur, energy of incident photons, must be greater than work functions of metal. Hence, only Li, Na, K and Mg have work functions less than 4.14 eV.
