A topaz crystal has an interplanar spacing (d) of 1.36 Å (1 Å =1×10^[−10] m). Calculate the wavelength of the X-ray that should
be used if θ = 15° (assume n = 1).
1 answer:
Answer:
7.0*10-11m or 70Å
Explanation:
From Bragg's equation, w=2dsinx/n
Since all the parameters are specified in the question, we can easily go ahead to obtain the wavelength but we must convert the spacing given in angstroms to meters using the conversion factor provided as shown in the solution below:

Explanation:
A point of temperature at which both solid and liquid state of a substance remains in equilibrium without any change in temperature then this temperature is known as melting point.
For example, melting point of water is . So, at this temperature solid state of water and liquid state are present in equilibrium with each other.
Therefore, when a 100 g of given pure metal in solid state is heated at its exact melting point which is then some of the solid will change into liquid state but the temperature will remains the same.
Answer: The bond formed between the elements will be ionic bond.
Explanation: We are given two elements having electronic configurations:
Element 1:
Element 2:
Element 1 can easily loose 1 electron to attain stable electronic configuration and Element 2 can accept 1 electron to attain stable electronic configuration.
For these elements, there will be a complete transfer of electron from Element 1 to Element 2. Hence, this will form a ionic bond.
From the configuration, Element 1 is Lithium and Element 2 is Fluoride. So, the compound is LiF.
