Answer:

Procyon appears brighter in the sky

Explanation:

Apparent magnitude of star Antares = 1.0

Apparent magnitude of star Procyon = 0.4

Pogson's Ratio

m₂-m₁ =  -2.50 log(B₂/B₁)

where, m is the apparent magnitude

B = Brightness of star or flux coming towards us (W/m²)

∴Larger magnitudes correspond to fainter stars so here 1>0.4 which means Antares appears dimmer and Procyon appears brighter.
