The frequency of X-rays can be calculated using the formula:f = c/λwhere:f is the frequency in Hzc is the speed of light in m/s (3 × 108 m/s)λ is the wavelength in metersSubstituting the given wavelength of 1 Å (10−10 m) into the formula, we get:f = 3 × 108 m/s / 10−10 m = 3 × 1018 HzTherefore, the frequency of X-rays of wavelength 1 Å is 3 × 1018 Hz, which corresponds to choice A.
