Step 1: The energy of the photon:

The expression of the energy of the photon is given by,

$∆ E = hf$ ….. (1)

Here, h is plank constant, and f is frequency of the photon.

Step 2: Define the amount of increase in the energy of the atom:

Substitute $6.626 \times 10^{- 34} J . s$ for h, and $6.2 \times 10^{14} Hz$ for f in equation (1).

$∆ E = (6.626 \times 10^{- 34} J . s) (6.2 \times 10^{14} Hz) = 4.12 \times 10^{- 19} J$

Hence, the energy of the atom is increased by $4.12 \times 10^{- 19} J$ .
