The K-shell and L-shell ionization energies of a metal are
Chapter , Problem 63(choose chapter or problem)
The K-shell and L-shell ionization energies of a metal are 8979 eV and 951 eV, respectively. Concepts: (i) How is a Ka photon produced, and how much energy does it have? (ii) What must be the minimum voltage across the X-ray tube to produce a Ka photon? (iii) What is meant by the phrases K-shell ionization energy and L-shell ionization energy? (iv) What does the diff erence between the K-shell and L-shell ionization energies represent? Calculations: (a) Assuming that there is a vacancy in the L shell, what must be the minimum voltage across an X-ray tube with a target made from this metal to produce Ka X-ray photons? (b) Determine the wavelength of a Ka photon.
