(a)
Interpretation:
The given property of light is to be labeled as a wave property, a particle property, both, or neither.
Concept introduction:
Light has a dual nature, that is, it has both characteristics of particle nature and wave nature. The classical science cannot explain the particle nature of light. Thomas Young’s diffraction experiment gives the proof that light has wave like nature and
