In terms of lowest to the highest energy,frequency, and wavelength is;

Energy: infrared > visible light > ultraviolet

Frequency: infrared > visible light > ultraviolet

Wavelength: ultraviolet > visible light > infrared

The electromagnetic spectrum:

The electromagnetic spectrum is made up of all the electromagnetic waves (ultraviolet, infrared, and visible) arranged according to their energy,frequency, and wavelength.

The ultraviolet: This wave is seen in the sunlight and is made up of wavelength of 10nm to 400nm. A frequency of $10^{16}$ (Hz).Infrared wave: They are invisisble to the human eye but can be felt as heat. It has frequency of $10^{12}$ Hz and a wavelength of 780nm to 1mm.Visible light: This is part of the electromagnetic wave that the eye can view. It has frequency of $10^{15}$ Hz and a wavelength of 380 to 700nm.

Answer from: shainaanderson24

1. Energy: ultraviolet>> visible> infrared

2. Frequency: ultraviolet>> visible > infrared

3. Wavelength: infrared >> visible > ultraviolet

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are a class of waves that do not require material medium for their propagation, and travel at the same speed. They are arranged with respect to either their decreasing wavelength or increasing frequency to form a spectrum called an electromagnetic spectrum.

Comparing the energy, frequency and wavelength of ultraviolet, infrared and visible regions, it can be deduced that:

1. Energy: ultraviolet has the highest energy, then followed by visible, and infrared has the lowest energy.

i.e energy: ultraviolet>> visible> infrared

2. Frequency: ultraviolet radiation has the highest frequency, visible region has a greater frequency than that of infrared.

i.e frequency: ultraviolet>> visible > infrared

3. Wavelength: infrared radiation has the highest wavelength, followed by visible region, and ultraviolet radiation has the lowest wavelength.

i.e wavelength: infrared >> visible > ultraviolet
