To find the typical de-Broglie wavelength associated with a helium atom in helium gas at room temperature (27°C) and 1 atm pressure, and to compare it with the mean separation between two atoms under these conditions, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the temperature to Kelvin The room temperature given is 27°C. To convert this to Kelvin, we use the formula: \[ T(K) = T(°C) + 273 \] \[ T = 27 + 273 = 300 \, K \] ### Step 2: Determine the pressure in Pascals ...

(a) Obtain the de-Broglie wavelength of a neutron of kinetic energy 150 eV. As you have seen in previous problem 31, an electron beam of this energy is suitable for crystal diffraction experiments. Would a neutron beam of the same energy be equally suitable? Explain. Given m_(n)=1.675xx10^(-27)kg . (b) Obtain the de-Broglie wavelength associated with thermal neutrons at room temperature (27^(@)C) . Hence explain why a fast neutrons beam needs to be thermalised with the environment before it can be used for neutron diffraction experiments.
