Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be "4.08 × 10⁻¹⁹ Joule".

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength, λ = 486.0 nm

As we know,

[tex]E=h\upsilon =\frac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex]

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒          [tex]=\frac{1241.5 \ ev\ nm}{486 \ nm}[/tex]

⇒          [tex]=2.554 \ ev[/tex]

∴ 1 ev = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

Now,

Energy, [tex]E=2.554\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}[/tex]

⇒               [tex]=4.08\times 10^{-19} Joule[/tex]
