Photons can have any frequency: 0 Hz (0 eV) to infinite Hz (infinite eV).
The energy carried by a photon is given byE = hfWhere h is Planck's constant (6.626x10^-34 Joule-seconds) and f is the frequency of the photon in Hertz (Hz).We are given the wavelength of the photon in the question in nanometers (nm). First, we need to convert this to (SI) units, because our equations only work with SI units. Then, we will calculate the frequency of the photon from its wavelength. Once we know the frequency of the photon we're interested in, we simply use the equation above to find the energy carried by one of them. Then we divide 6 kJ by that amount of energy, and the quotient will be the number of photons needed to carry 6 kJ. Finally, when we know the number of photons we need, we divide by the number of photons in a mole to get the number of moles.The SI unit of length is the meter (m). 1nanometer (nm) is 10^-9 meters.660 nm = 660 *10^-9 m = 6.6*10^-7 m.Now we will calculate this photon's frequency from its wavelength. These are related by the equationc = fLwhere c is the speed of light (3*10^8 m/s), f is the frequency of the photon and L is the wavelength of the photon.c = fL(3*10^8 m/s) = f * (6.6*10^-7 m)solving for f, we havef = (3*10^8 m/s) / (6.6*10^-7 m) = 4.54*10^15 s^-1Note that the unit of seconds (s) raised to the -1power is defined as 1 Hertz (Hz).f = 4.54*10^15 HzNow we will use the top equation to solve for the energy carried by one photon having this frequency.E = hfE = (6.626*10^-34 Js) * (4.54*10^15 Hz)E = 1.369*10^-17 JThis is how much energy is carried by one photon of wavelength 660 nm (which will also have a frequency of 4.54*10^15 Hz).How many of these do we need to provide 6 kJ? This is solved by simple division. Keeping in mind that 1 kJ = 1000 J, we haveNumber of photons * Energy per photon = 6 kJNumber of photons * (1.369*10^-17 J/photon) = 6 kJNumber of photons * (1.369*10^-17 J/photon) = 6000 JNumber of photons = 6000 J / (1.369*10^-17 J/photon)Number of photons = 4.382*10^20 photonsThis is how many photons (at this frequency) are needed to provide 6 kJ. How many moles of photons is this?Number of photons / number of photons in a mole = number of molesRecall that a mole of something is defined as 6.02*10^23of it. The same way a dozen eggs is defined as 12 eggs, a mole of eggs is 6.02*10^23 eggs. Equivalently, a mole of photons is 6.02*10^23 photons. SoNumber of photons / (6.02*10^23 photons per mole) = number of moles(4.382*10^20 photons) / (6.02*10^23 photons per mole) = number of moles7.279*10^-4 moles = number of molesForgive me if my arithmetic is off, as I don't have a good calculator handy. However, I believe this is the correct method to use.
magnetism works by the type of metal used to pull other type metal to it.
Though it may be imprecise, when people refer to the size of a photon, they are talking about the wavelength associated with it. Seen in this way, the photons detected by the human eye are 4000 to 7000 angstroms (an angstrom is 1x10-10 meters). Numbers and measurements on such a scale are hard to imagine, but by comparison, a helium atom is about 1 angstrom, and the largest atoms are about 7. UV photons, X-rays, and gamma rays are smaller. Wavelengths of radio frequency photons can be very big, ranging from a millimeter to many kilometers.

Photons can have any frequency: 0 Hz (0 eV) to infinite Hz (infinite eV).
Yes, physicists from the University of Bonn developed a new sourse of light, a Bose-Einstein condensate consisting of photons which is a super photon. This light resembles lasers that work in the x-ray range. This will allow for more greater advances in technology in computers and hospitals.
It doesn't work that way. Light consists of individual particles (pieces) called photons; any light consists of one or more photons - in any case, a whole number of photons. If you can see any light, it is most likely that it has much more than just one photon - probably millions of them.
Photon detectors count photons of light. A photon detector has some surface that absorbs photons and produces some effect (current, voltage) proportional to the number of photons absorbed. A photovoltaic cell consists of a layer of semiconductor (like selenium, Hg-Cd-Te, Cu2O, etc.) sandwiched between two metallic electrodes, with the exposed electrode thin enough to be transparent. Photons of light are absorbed by the semiconductor, forming electrons and holes that create a current proportional to the number of photons absorbed. A phototube uses the photoelectric effect to generate a current from absorbed light. Light is absorbed by a metallic surface with a low work function. Electrons are emitted and attracted to a positively biased anode. Electronics measure the current, which is proportional to the number of photons absorbed.

There's no function inside a TV set that requires magnetism to make it work.

Light, no matter what color, is composed of photons. Each photon has a specific wavelength (color) associated with it. Because of the way our eyes work, at least three different wavelengths are required for us to perceive light as "white".
magnetism works by the type of metal used to pull other type metal to it.
In the work function equation, the work function is the minimum energy needed to remove an electron from a material. The relationship between the work function, wavelength, and energy of a photon is that the energy of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency, which is inversely proportional to its wavelength. This means that a photon with higher energy (shorter wavelength) can provide enough energy to overcome the work function and eject an electron from the material.
