The Kα X-rays arising from a cobalt (z : 27) target have a wavelength of 179 pm. The Kα X-rays arising from a nickel target (z = 28) is

a
> 179 pm
b
< 179 pm
c
= 179 pm
d
None of these

detailed solution

Correct option is B

λkα∝1Z−12⇒λNiλCo=ZCo−1ZNi−12=27−128−12⇒lNi=26272×λCo=26272×179=165.9pm<179pm
