Which of the following types of electromagnetic waves has a frequency greater than ultraviolet waves? a) x rays b) infrared waves c) microwaves d)visible light

The X-rays has a frequency greater than ultraviolet waves.  

•The range of all the kinds of electromagnetic radiation is known as the electromagnetic spectrum.  

•The types of the electromagnetic waves, which makes up the electromagnetic spectrum are the visible light, microwaves, infrared light, UV rays, X-rays, and gamma rays.  

•The energy of the waves is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to their wavelengths.  

•The radiowaves exhibits the photons with least energies, followed by microwaves, infrared rays, visible, UV rays, X-rays, and the most energetic of all the waves is the gamma rays.  

•The wavelengths of the UV rays is smaller than infrared waves, microwaves, and visible light, however, it is greater than X-rays and gamma rays.  

•Thus, the frequencies of UV rays is more than the infrared waves, microwaves, and visible light, but is lesser than the frequencies of X-rays and gamma rays.  

Thus, of the mentioned options, X-rays will possess greater frequency than UV rays.

A) X-rays

Step-by-step explanation:

Ultraviolet rays have a frequency range of 10¹⁵ Hz to 10¹⁷ Hz.

X-rays have a frequency range of 10¹⁷ Hz to 10²⁰ Hz, so they have a higher frequency than UV waves.

B) is wrong. The frequency range of infrared light is 10¹³ Hz to 4 × 10¹⁴ Hz.

C) is wrong. The frequency range of microwaves is 3 ×10¹¹ Hz to 10¹³ Hz.

D) is wrong. The frequency range of microwaves is 4 ×10¹⁴ Hz to 7.5 × 10¹⁴ Hz.

c. electrical charges of ionic bonds.
