**Neutron Diffraction and Molecular Structures**

Neutron diffraction is a crucial technique used in determining the structures of molecules. To better understand this concept, let's explore the following exercises:

**a. Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of a neutron moving at 2.86% of the speed of light.**

\[ \text{Wavelength} = \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \, \text{m} \]

**b. Calculate the velocity of a neutron with a wavelength of 73 pm** \((1 \, \text{pm} = 10^{-12} \, \text{m})\).

\[ \text{Velocity} = \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \, \text{m/s} \]

These exercises involve applying the de Broglie wavelength formula and converting units to solve for wavelength and velocity, respectively.
