Answer to Problem 71QRT
The frequency of radiation of one photon and one mole photons are found out to be
Explanation of Solution
The maximum wavelength of the radiation that would be diffracted by a crystal is equal to its unit cell edge length. So
(a) Then, the frequency of radiation can be calculated as given below.
Therefore, the frequency of radiation of one photon is found out to be
The energy associated with one photon can also be calculated as follows,
(b) The frequency of radiation of one mole photons can be calculated as follows,
The energy associated with one mole photons can also be calculated as follows,
The energy and frequency range are coming under
