Question: 5 . ( 2 0 ) Consider a copper crystal, which has the fcc structure, a lattice parameter of 0 . 3 6 1 5

5.(20) Consider a copper crystal, which has the fcc structure, a lattice parameter of 0.3615 nm at room temperature, and a coefficient of thermal expansion of 14.87\times 10-6\deg C-1.
A.(5) Calculate the interplanar spacing between the (111) set of planes.
B.(10) If illuminated with monochromatic x-rays with wavelength 0.1790 nm, at what angle will the first-order (n =1) Bragg peaks show up?
C.(5) What happens to this angle when the crystal is heated to 500\deg C and the diffraction angle is measured again?
