Answer:


E=4.5* 10^(-18)\ J

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, the frequency of Ultraviolet radiation is
6.8* 10^(15)\ Hz

We need to find the energy of the photon. The formula for the energy of a photon is given by :


E=hf\\\\\text{Where h is Planck's constant}\\\\E=6.63* 10^(-34)* 6.8* 10^(15)\\\\E=4.5* 10^(-18)\ J

So, the energy of the photon is
4.5* 10^(-18)\ J.
