EM waves with the shortest wavelengths are called gamma rays. The range of wavelengths that are called gamma rays is between 1 x 10^-12 meters and 1 x 10^-20 meters, or; .000000000001 m to .00000000000000000001 m .

∙ 14y agoRadio waves are the least dangerous because they have the lowest frequency and longest wavelength. They also have the lowest amount of energy and so aren't as dangerous.

Is the spectrum of an element limited to the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum?
No. The emission and absorption spectrum covers everything from UHF radio to X-rays. (There are no energy level transitions that correspond to the low energy HF or VHF radio bands and below. The lowest-energy transition is the one at 1420 MHz/21 cm.)
Working principle of atomic emission spectroscopy?
An emission spectrum is the spectrum of frequencies of the electromagnetic radiation emitted (by an atom or molecule) during a transition from a high energy to a low energy level.
How is the light of an emission spectrum of an element produced?
Basically, energy is emitted when an electron falls from a higher energy level to a lower energy level. Such energy is emitted as electromagnetic waves, which in certain cases can be visible light.
What color of the electromagnetic spectrum has the lowest frequency?
The "Balmer Series" includes the visible spectrum of light from hydrogen ... fourwavelengths, 410 nm, 434 nm, 486 nm, and 656 nm, that correspond to emissionsof photons by electrons in excited states transitioning to the quantum level describedby the principal quantum number n equals 2. (There are also a number of ultravioletBalmer lines with wavelengths shorter than 400 nm.)Of the four visible Balmer lines, the one with the longest wavelength ... 656 nm ...is the one with the lowest energy per photon. It appears quite red.
What is the electromagnetic spectrum of fire?
During a flame test the electrons of the metal tested absorb some of the heat and jump to a higher energy level. The electrons then settle back to a lower, mosre stable level, releasing the energy as light of a given wavelength.
What types of waves in the electromagnetic spectrum have the highest energy level?
Gamma rays

What electromagnetic has the lowest energy level?
Radio waves have the lowest energy levels. They also have the longest wavelengths and the lowest frequencies of EM radiation.

In what are electromagnetic waves arranged in order accoring to their wave lengths?
Here is the electromagnetic spectrum arranged according to wavelength (with the lowest wavelength first): ~Radio waves ~Microwaves ~Infra - red ~Visible light ~Ultra violet ~X - rays ~Gamma rays ~High - energy gamma rays (AKA: cosmic rays, as virtually all electromagnetic radiation at this energy level comes from space.)

How is electromagnetic spectrum related to electrons?
No direct relation; electromagnetic waves are transmitted by photons. However, electromagnetic waves are often caused by the acceleration of electric charges, and those charges are usually electrons. Also, electromagnetic waves are emitted and absorbed when an electron (in an atom) changes to another energy level.
What is the lowest level to allow f orbitals?
the lowest energy level to allow f orbitals is the fourth energy level
If Assuming all orbitals are the same in energy level which type of orbital has the lowest energy?
The s orbital has the lowest energy level.
What is the number of the lowest energy level that contains an f sublevel?
The 4th energy level is the lowest that contains and f sub-level
