Detailed Solution

Kinetic energy of most of the neutrons i.e. the most probable energy of a neutron at temperature T is

12mv2=kBT

p22m=kBT

p=2mkBT

de-Broglie wavelength possessed by most of the neutrons is given by

λ=hp=h2mkBT

Given mn=1.675×10-27 kg , kB=1.38×10-23 Jmol-1K-1T=27+273=300 K,  h=6.63×10-34 Js

λ=6.63×10-342×1.67×10-27×1.38×10-23×300=1.78×10-10 m1.8 A
