The energy of a photon of wavelength 400...

The energy of a photon of wavelength 4000 Å is
(use `h=6.66xx10^(-34)`J-s)

A

`2xx10^(-19)` J

B

`3xx10^(-19) `J

C

`4xx10^(-19) `J

D

`5xx10^(-19) `J

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`E=hv=(hc)/(lambda)`
`=(6.66xx10^(-34)xx3xx10^(8))/(4xx10^(-7))=5xx10^(-19)`J
