The correct Answer is:
To find the frequency of light for a wavelength of 1.0 Å (angstrom), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert Wavelength to Meters The given wavelength is 1.0 Å. We need to convert this into meters for our calculations. 1 Å = \(10^{-10}\) meters. So, \[ \lambda = 1.0 \, \text{Å} = 1.0 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m} \] ### Step 2: Use the Speed of Light Formula The speed of light (c) is given by the equation: \[ c = \nu \times \lambda \] where: - \(c\) is the speed of light, approximately \(3 \times 10^8 \, \text{m/s}\), - \(\nu\) is the frequency, - \(\lambda\) is the wavelength. ### Step 3: Rearrange the Formula to Solve for Frequency We need to find the frequency (\(\nu\)), so we rearrange the formula: \[ \nu = \frac{c}{\lambda} \] ### Step 4: Substitute the Values Now we can substitute the values into the equation: \[ \nu = \frac{3 \times 10^8 \, \text{m/s}}{1.0 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m}} \] ### Step 5: Perform the Calculation Calculating the above expression: \[ \nu = 3 \times 10^8 \div 1.0 \times 10^{-10} = 3 \times 10^{18} \, \text{s}^{-1} \] ### Step 6: Express the Frequency The frequency can also be expressed in hertz (Hz) or cycles per second: \[ \nu = 3 \times 10^{18} \, \text{Hz} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the frequency of light for a wavelength of 1.0 Å is: \[ \nu = 3 \times 10^{18} \, \text{Hz} \]
