Question

When a diffraction pattern of a crystalline solid is recorded using an X-ray beam of wavelength 0.26 nm, the first order diffraction peak occurs at a scattering angle of 35°. If the error in the measurements of angle and wavelength are 1° and 0.01 nm respectively, then determine the error in measuring the interplanar spacing. (a) 22.86 nm (b) 32.38 nm (c) 15.2 nm (d) 13.2 nm

Step 1

In this case, we are given that n = 1, λ = 0.26 nm, and θ = 35°. So, we can calculate d as follows: d = λ / (2 sinθ) = 0.26 nm / (2 sin 35°) = 0.226 nm Show more…
