To find the wavelength of the `L_alpha` X-ray of molybdenum, we can use the relationships between the energies of the electron shells and their corresponding wavelengths. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Understand the relationships between the X-ray wavelengths We know that: - The wavelength of `K_alpha` X-ray (λ_Kα) is given as 0.71 Å. - The wavelength of `K_beta` X-ray (λ_Kβ) is given as 0.63 Å. The energy differences corresponding to these wavelengths can be expressed as: ...
