The order of the energy of the photons of given wave will be

= Ultraviolet waves > infrared waves > microwaves

E = hv

where,

E = energy of photon

v = frequency of the radiation

h = Planck's constant = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ J s

We have :

(a) Frequency of infrared waves = v₁ = 6.5×10¹³J s

(b) Frequency of microwaves= v₂ = 9.8×10¹¹ J s

(c) Frequency of ultraviolet waves = v₃ = 8×10¹⁵J s

So, the decreasing order of the frequencies of the waves  will be :

v₃ >v₁> v₂

As we can see from the formula that energy is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave.

E∝v

So, the order of the energy of the photons of given wave will be same as their order of frequencies:

E₃> E₁ >E₂

= Ultraviolet waves > infrared waves > microwaves

Also the complete question is :

Rank the following photons in terms of decreasing energy:

(a) IR (v = 6.5 x 10¹³ s⁻¹)

(b) microwave (v = 9.8 x 10¹¹ s⁻¹)

(c) UV (v = 8.0 x 10¹⁵ s⁻¹)

What characterizes an Arrhenius base?
dybincka [34]

Answer:

An Arrhenius base is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydroxide (OH–) ions. In other words, a base increases the concentration of OH– ions in an aqueous solution.
