Answer:

1.47 x 10⁻¹⁹J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters;

Frequency of wave = 2.22 x 10¹⁴/s

Unknown:

Energy of the photon = ?

Solution:

The energy of a photon can be mathematically derived using the expression below;

E = hf

E is the energy

h is the Planck's constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴m²kg/s

f is the frequency

Insert the parameters and solve;

E = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴m²kg/s x 2.22 x 10¹⁴/s

E = 14.7 x 10⁻²⁰J or 1.47 x 10⁻¹⁹J
