What metal has in its absorption spectrum the difference between the frequencies of X-rays K and L absorption edges equal to Delta omega= 6.85.10^(18) S^(-1) ?

Answer»

Solution :The difference in FREQUENCIES of the `K` and `L` absorption edges is equal, accorfing to the Bohr picture, to the frequency of the `k_(alpha)` line(SEE the diagram below). Thus by Mosely's formule
`DELTA omega =(3)/(4)R(Ƶ-1)^(2)`
or `Ƶ=1+sqrt((4Delta omega)/(3R))=22`

The metal is titanium.
