Answer to Question #162654 in General Chemistry for Nichole

Question

1. What is the frequency of microwaves with wavelength of 35 m?
2. What is the frequency of infrared with wavelength of 7.5 x 10-9 m?

Answer 1

1. frequency = c/$\lambda$

frequency = 3×10⁸ /35

frequency = 8.5×10⁶

2. frequency = c/$\lambda$

frequency = 3×10⁸ / 7.5×10^-9

frequency = 4×10¹⁶
