The smallest quantum of energy is E=hc/w = 2E-25/w where w is the wavelength.
The quantum of light energy is called a photon. It is the smallest possible discrete unit of light.
Light of is made up of a finite number of photons, or light quanta. The energy of each photon is proportional to the frequency of the light, and hence inversely proportional to the wavelength of the light. Red light has a longer wavelength than blue light, so the quantum of red light has less energy than the quantum of blue light.
The color with the smallest (or as scientist term it, the shortest) wavelength is the color violet, also known as purple.
A quantum can have almost any energy. For example, light comes in pieces or quanta (the photons), but the individual pieces (photons) can have any energy, from near zero to an almost unlimited energy.
The shortest wavelength of visible light is the wavelength of the last color you can see on the blue end of the rainbow or spectrum.

Quantum leaps between energy levels that are farther apart would be associated with the greatest energy of emitted light. This is because energy and wavelength of emitted light are inversely proportional, so larger energy differences result in shorter wavelength (higher energy) light being emitted.
The smallest energy drop of an electron produces red light. When an electron transitions to its lowest energy level, it emits a photon with the least energy, corresponding to the red wavelength of light.
Wavelength, frequency, and energy carried by each photon (light quantum).
Except for their wavelength (frequency) and energy per quantum, they're identical.

The longer wavelength will be produced by the transition from n = 4 to n = 3, so the transition 4p3p will produce light with a longer wavelength compared to the transition 3p2s. This is because the energy difference between the energy levels decreases as the quantum number n increases, leading to longer wavelengths.
If the wavelength is long, the quanta have low energy. This is because energy is inversely proportional to wavelength, according to the equation E = hc/λ, where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, c is the speed of light, and λ is wavelength.
You can find energy by using the equation E = hc/λ, where E represents energy, h is Planck's constant (6.626 x 10^-34 J s), c is the speed of light (3.00 x 10^8 m/s), and λ is the wavelength of the light. By plugging in the values of h, c, and the given wavelength into the equation, you can determine the energy associated with that specific wavelength.
