Answer:  A.  1.07 x 10∧ -18 J

Explanation:

The energy can be calculated by using this relation; E = hc / ∧

Where E = energy

            h = Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10-34joules

            c  = speed of light =  3.00 x 10∧8 m/s

            ∧  = wavelenght  = 185 nm = 185 x 10∧ -9m

Therefore;  E=  hc / ∧

                     =  (6.626 x 10-34 j/s)  x  ( 3.00 x 10∧8 m/s)  /  185 x 10∧ -9m

                     =    1.987 x 10 ∧ -25 / 185 x 10∧ -9m

                     =  1.07 x 10∧ -18 J
