The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will use Bragg's Law, which is given by the equation: \[ n\lambda = d \sin \theta \] Where: - \( n \) is the order of diffraction, - \( \lambda \) is the wavelength of the incident wave, - \( d \) is the distance between the crystal planes, - \( \theta \) is the Bragg's angle. ### Step-by-step solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Wavelength \( \lambda = 1 \, \text{Å} = 1 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m} \) - Bragg's angle \( \theta = 60^\circ \) - Order of diffraction \( n = 2 \) 2. **Write down Bragg's Law:** \[ n\lambda = d \sin \theta \] 3. **Rearrange the equation to solve for \( d \):** \[ d = \frac{n\lambda}{\sin \theta} \] 4. **Substitute the known values into the equation:** \[ d = \frac{2 \times 1 \times 10^{-10}}{\sin 60^\circ} \] 5. **Calculate \( \sin 60^\circ \):** \[ \sin 60^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \] 6. **Substitute \( \sin 60^\circ \) into the equation:** \[ d = \frac{2 \times 1 \times 10^{-10}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}} \] 7. **Simplify the equation:** \[ d = \frac{2 \times 1 \times 10^{-10} \times 2}{\sqrt{3}} \] \[ d = \frac{4 \times 10^{-10}}{\sqrt{3}} \] 8. **Calculate the final value of \( d \):** - Using \( \sqrt{3} \approx 1.732 \): \[ d \approx \frac{4 \times 10^{-10}}{1.732} \approx 2.31 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{m} \] - Converting to angstroms (1 Å = \( 10^{-10} \, \text{m} \)): \[ d \approx 2.31 \, \text{Å} \] ### Final Answer: The distance \( d \) for the second order diffraction is approximately \( 2.31 \, \text{Å} \).
