Match List I with List II and select the correct answer using the code given below the lists:
List I (Type of electromagnetic radiation)
A. Infrared radiation
B. X-rays
C. Ultraviolet radiation
D. Gamma rays
List II (Approx. wave length in meter)
1. 10^-12
2. 10^-5
3. 10^-10

{'infrared radiation': [0, 0, 3, 3], 'radiation': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'ultraviolet radiation': [1, 0, 1, 0], 'gamma': [0, 0, 1, 0]}

The correct answer for matching the type of electromagnetic radiation with their approximate wavelength is option 1.

Option 1 matches the types of radiation (List I) with their approximate wavelength (List II) as follows:

A. Infrared radiation - 10^-12 meters

B. X-rays - 10^-5 meters

C. Ultraviolet radiation - 10^-10 meters

D. Gamma rays - 10^-8 meters

Infrared radiation refers to electromagnetic waves with longer wavelengths than visible light. X-rays have shorter wavelengths and higher energy than visible light. Ultraviolet radiation has even shorter wavelengths and higher energy than both infrared radiation and visible light. Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength and highest energy among the listed types of radiation.

So, the correct matching of List I with List II is option 1.
