Expert Solution
Step 1

In electromagnetic spectrum, we arrange different electromagnetic radiations in order of their frequency or wavelength.

Energy of electromagnetic radiation is directly proportional to frequency and inversely proportional to wavelength.

Hence higher the frequency of electromagnetic radiation, higher is the energy.

Also, higher the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation, smaller is the energy.
