Answer:

589.3 nm

Step-by-step explanation:

The wavelength of a sodium light is 5893 A.

We need to find the wavelength in nm.

$5893\ A=5893* 10^(-10)\ m$

Also,
$1\ nm=10^(-9)\ m$

$5893\ A=5893* 10^(-9)* 10^(-1)\ m\\\\=5893* 10^(-1)\ nm\\\\=589.3\ nm$

So, the wavelength of sodium light is 589.3 nm.
