Energy of a photon corresponding to a wavelength of 600 nm is 2.08 eV. The energy of a photon of wavelength 400 nm will be: |
1.39 eV 3.12 eV 4.68 eV 0.92 eV |
3.12 eV |
The correct answer is Option (2) → 3.12 eV The energy of the photon is, $E=hv=\frac{hc}{λ}$ [frequency = $v=\frac{c}{λ}$] and, $E_1.λ_1=E_2.λ_2$ $E_2=E_1\left(\frac{λ_1}{λ_2}\right)$ $=2.08×\frac{600}{400}=3.12eV$ |
