Chapter 13, Problem 24Q

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

X-rays are what has to be answered.

Concept Introduction:

X-ray diffraction: It is the technique to study about the crystal structures. In this technique, X-rays are scattered from unit cells of the crystalline solids. The scattering of X-rays gives the information about the arrangement of particles in the solid lattice.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: How X-ray-diffraction is used to determine a crystal structure.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

X-ray diffraction patterns are first made with simple salts but not with nucleic acids and proteins. Two reasons for this statement have to be suggested.
