In the X-ray diffraction of a set of crystal planes having d equal to 0.18 nm, first order reflection is found to be at an angle of 22°. The wavelength of X-rays is: (sin 22° = 0.374, cos 22° = 0.927)
1. 0.0745 nm
2. 0.0137 nm
3. 0.745 nm
4. 0.135 nm

Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 4 : 0.135 nm

Concept:

Bragg’s Law states that when an X-ray beam are allowed to scatter through a crystalline surface, its angle of incidence θ will reflect with some angle of scattering θ. And when the path difference d is equal to a whole number n, of wavelength.

It can be represented as

2dsinθ  =nλ

Calculation:

Given:

d = 0.18 nm, n = 1, θ = 22°

From Bragg’s law:

2d sin θ = nλ

2 × 0.18 × sin 22° = 1 ⋅ λ

λ = 0.13464 nm
