1 Powder diffraction pattems of three monatomic cubic crystals with BCC, FCC and diamond structures are recorded using a Debye-Scherrer camera. The angles 2? in degrees of the first four diffraction lines for the three samples marked as A,B,C are as under: (a) Determine the structure type of each sample. (b) What is the size of the cubic cell in each case? Take the wavelength of incident x-rays as 1.5A.
Using the given diffraction angles and assuming a wavelength of 1.5 Å for the incident X-rays, we can determine the structure type of each sample and estimate the size of the cubic cell as follows:
(a) Determine the structure type of each sample:
To identify the structure type, we compare the observed angles with the expected angles for different crystal structures.
Sample A:
The observed angles for sample ...
