Energy is needed to initiate a chemical reaction. UV and visible light are examples of radiant energy energy transmitted from a high-temperature source to a receiving body without the use of any matter in between. UV and visible light actually.

comprise a very small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which characterizes all wavelengths of radiant energy found on earth. UV light extends from 100 to 400 nm (nanometers) and visible light from 400 to about 760 nm in wavelength.

A nanometer is one billionth of a meter (10 to 9 meter) or 10 angstroms. Light in the UV or visible region, which is capable of interacting with matter to produce chemical reactions, is also referred to as actinic light.
