Question
The ratio of the energy of the photon emitted the kα line to that of the kβ line is
Options
A.greater than I
B.Less than I
C.1
D.Indeterminate
Solution
ᐃE = E0 (Z-1)2 
for kα, n1 = 1, n2 = 2
for kβ, n1 = 1, n2 = 3
Soenergy of the photon corresponding to kα line is line less than that of kβ line.
for kα, n1 = 1, n2 = 2
for kβ, n1 = 1, n2 = 3
Soenergy of the photon corresponding to kα line is line less than that of kβ line.
