Question

Identify the process.

(a) X-ray scan

(b) C.T. scan

(c) X-ray crystallography

(d) X-ray production

The question was asked during an internship interview.

I need to ask this question from Crystal Structure in chapter X-Rays and Compton Effect of Engineering Physics II

Answer 1

Correct answer is (c) X-ray crystallography

To explain I would say: X-ray crystallography is used to identify the molecular and atomic structure of the crystal. The crystal diffracts the incident X-ray beam. By measuring the intensities and angle of these diffracted beams, the molecular structure of the crystal can be evaluated.
