Detailed Solution

Here it is given, the energy required to dissociate a carbon monoxide molecule into carbon and oxygen atoms is  E=11eV. We know that E= where h=6.62×1034Js  and ϑ is frequency 
 11eV=hϑ ϑ=11×1.6×10196.62×1034=2.65×1015Hz
This frequency radiation belongs to ultraviolet region.
When energy of the given photon is in electron volt  then   wavelength will  be given by λ=1243211Å=1130.18×10-10 m    

this wavelength of the photon is in ultraviolet region 

 E=hcλ    λin Å=hcE =12432E
