Step 1. Recall where Planck's constant appears. It is the proportionality constant in E=hνE = h\nu, linking a quantum of radiation's energy to its frequency.

Step 2. Recall its value. The chapter states h=6.626×10−34h = 6.626\times10^{-34} J s.

Step 3. Rule out the distractors. 6.023×10−246.023\times10^{-24} Js confuses the exponent with Avogadro's number's magnitude; 1.667×10−281.667\times10^{-28} Js and 6.626×10−286.626\times10^{-28} Js both use the wrong power of ten.

✓Final answer

(a) 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ Js
