Question:

Excited hydrogen atom emits light in the ultraviolet region at 2.47 × 10¹⁵ Hz. With this frequency, the energy of a single photon is: (h = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Js)

2.680 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

8.041 × 10⁻³⁰ J

1.640 × 10⁻¹⁸ J

6.111 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

Solution:

Energy of photon = h × ν
Energy = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ × 2.47 × 10¹⁵ = 1.640 × 10⁻¹⁸ J
