green
yellow
red ​

Answer:

The correct option is (c).

Explanation:

Given that,

The energy of a photon is, [tex]E=3.38\times 10^{-19}\ J[/tex]

We need to tell the color of this light. We know that, the energy of a photon is given by :

[tex]E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex]

Where

c is the speed of light

[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{3.38 \times 10^{-19}}\\\\\lambda=5.88\times 10^{-7}\ m\\\\\lambda=588\ nm[/tex]

The wavelength of yellow light is approx 580 nm. Hence, we can say that this photon corresponds to yellow light.
