The energy a photon of the orange light carries is 3.32 eV.
The energy possessed by the photon incident on a surface is the energy of the photon. It is denoted by [tex]E[/tex].
Energy is related to frequency as
[tex]E=h\nu[/tex]
where h is the plank's constant, [tex]h = 6.626 \times10^{-34} \; \rm Js[/tex]
[tex]\nu=5.01\times10^{14} \:\rm Hz[/tex]
Energy will be
[tex]E= 6.626 \times10^{-34} \times\55.01\times10^{14}\\E=\333.2\times10^{-20} \rm J[/tex]
Given,
[tex]1\rm eV = 1.60 \times 10^{-19} \rm J[/tex]
Energy in eV is
[tex]E=\frac{33.2\times10^{-20}}{ 1.60 \times 10^{-19} \rm J} \\E=3.32 \rm eV[/tex]
Therefore, the energy of the photon in eV is 3.32 eV.
