Question:

The wave length of Red light in the visible region is about 760 nm the energy of photon in that case will be:

Options:

2.43 eV

3.18 eV

1.64 eV

2.68 eV

Correct Answer:

1.64 eV

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → 1.64 eV

To calculate the energy of the photon (E),

$E=\frac{hc}{λ}$

where,

λ = Wavelength = 760 nm = $760×10^{-9}m$

$E=\frac{(6.63×10^{-34})(3×10^8)}{760×10^{-9}}$

$≃1.64eV$
