The defraction of a crystal of Barium with X-ray of wavelength 2.29 \AA gives a first order reflection at 27o8' . What is the distance between the diffracting planes ?

[ sin 27o8'= 0.4561]

  • Option 1)

    1.46 \AA

  • Option 2)

    1.59 \AA

  • Option 3)

    2.51 \AA

  • Option 4)

    5.46 \AA

n\lambda =2d\sin \Theta

where n=1\: \: ,\: \: \lambda =2.29A\, ^{\circ} \, \, ,\, \sin 27^{\circ}8=0.4561

putting the value of n,\, \lambda \,  &  \sin \Theta

1\times 2.29=2\times d\times 0.4561

d=\frac{2.29}{2\times 0.4561}=2.51A^{\circ}

 

Bragg's law -

Brag's law is used to find the separation between two layers of a crystal using x-rays.

nλ=2dsinθ

- wherein

Where,

d= distance between two consecutive layer of constituent particles in the crystal

θ= angle of incidence

λ= wavelength of x-ray

n= order of diffraction
