Your comparison attempt is confusing. Water molecules don't have 'waves' by themselves. The ocean has waves, H2O does not. We use the behavior of ocean and sound waves to determine the behavior and makeup of light waves. Humans can only see a portion of the existing electromagnetic spectrum.
X-rays and Gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths. Radio waves have the longest.
To find the wavelength of a single oxygen molecule traveling at a speed of 1165.7 miles per hour, we can use the de Broglie wavelength formula: ( \lambda = \frac{h}{mv} ), where ( h ) is Planck's constant (approximately ( 6.626 \times 10^{-34} ) J·s), ( m ) is the mass of an oxygen molecule (approximately ( 5.32 \times 10^{-26} ) kg), and ( v ) is the speed in meters per second (about 520.4 m/s). Plugging in these values, the wavelength is calculated to be around ( 1.2 \times 10^{-10} ) meters, or 0.12 nanometers.
A photon's color is determined by its wavelength, which corresponds to a specific color in the visible spectrum. A photon of shorter wavelength appears bluer while a longer wavelength appears redder. The perception of color in photons is a result of how our eyes detect and interpret different wavelengths of light.
Monochromatic light is light of one wavelength. E.g. A red laser has one single wavelength and is therefore categorised as 'monochromatic light'. A standard light bulb emits light of many different wavelengths across the visible spectrum and therefore is not 'monochromatic light'.
Single molecule real time sequencing was developed by Pacific Biosciences and uses synthesis technology. It is a parrallelized single molecule DNA sequencing.
Yes, light can have a single wavelength, which would correspond to a specific color in the visible spectrum. Different sources of light emit light with varying wavelengths, resulting in the various colors we perceive.

The shorter the wavelength of a wave, the higher its energy.
Monochromaticity refers to the purity of a single wavelength in light or other electromagnetic radiation. A monochromatic source emits light at a single specific wavelength without any other wavelengths present.
A wavelength consists of one full cycle of a periodic wave, such as an electromagnetic wave. For a single full wavelength, there will be two nodes - one at the peak and one at the trough of the wave.
For a single photon, the energy is equal to the frequency, multiplied by the reduced Plank constant. Since the frequency is equal to the speed of the wave divided by the wavelength, for the wavelength this becomes: energy = (reduced Planck constant) x (speed of light) / wavelength. Note that this is for a single photon only; it says nothing about the light from a flashlight, some other lamp, the Sun, etc., which consists of lots of photons.
In general it can be called a single frequency or a single wavelength. In the infrared, visible, and ultraviolet bands it can be called a spectral line. In the visible band it can be called monochromatic.

Yes, a particle can be a single molecule.
Yes, that's the general principle behind a chemical bond. Typically one part of the molecule, or single atom, will have a charge that is the opposite of a nearby atom or molecule. This opposing charge is responsible for a mutual attraction via the electromagnetic force. Similarly, if two particles have the same charge, they will repel each other as a result of the electromagnetic force.
At a single wavelength, it is called monochromatic
Ozone requires a shorter wavelength to break one of its bonds compared to oxygen. This is because ozone (O3) has a weaker bond due to having three oxygen atoms connected, which makes it easier to break compared to the double bond in diatomic oxygen (O2).
The distance between one compression and the next in a sound wave is called the wavelength. It represents the physical length of a single cycle of compression and rarefaction in the wave. The wavelength is determined by the frequency of the sound wave, with shorter wavelengths corresponding to higher frequencies.
