The `k_beta` X-rays from certain elements are given below. Draw a Moseley-type plot of `sqrt v` versus `Z` for `K_beta` radiation
Element Ne P Ca Mn Zn Br
Energy (keV) 0.858, 2.14, 4.02, 6.51, 9.57, 13.3.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

K_b radiation is when the e jumps from
` n=3 to n=1 `
(Here n is Principal quantum number)
` DeltaE=hf `
` =Rhe(Z-h)^2(1//2^2-1//3^2) `
` rArr sqrtf=(9Re)/8(Z-h) `
` :.(sqrt(f))alphaZ `
Second method
We can directly get value of f by
` hf=Energy `
` rArr f=(Energy (in keV)/h) `
thus we have to find out sqrtf and draw the same graph as above.

Continuous X-rays are made to strike a tissue paper soaked with polluted water. The incoming X-rays excite the atoms of the sample by knocking out the electrons form the inner shells. Characteristic X-rays are subsequently emitted. The emitted X-rays are analysed and the intensity is plotted against the wavelength (figure 44*E1). Assuming that only K_alpha intensities are detected, list the elements present in the sample from the plot. Use Moseley's equation. v = (25 xx 10^(14) Hz) (Z - 1)^(2) .
