Given, \mathrm{ \lambda_{k \alpha}=0.021 ~\mathrm{nm}=0.21 \hat{A}}
since, \mathrm{ \lambda_{k \alpha}} corresponding to the transition of an electron from L- shell to k-shell therefore,

\mathrm{ E_L-E_k=(\text { inc })=\frac{12375}{\lambda(\operatorname{in} A)}=\frac{12375}{0.21}}

\begin{aligned} \mathrm{E_L-E_K} & =58928 \mathrm{eV} \\ \Delta \mathrm{E }& =59 \mathrm{keV} \end{aligned}
