Consider a metal with an FCC crystal structure. The interplanar spacing is known to be (2.0000x10^-1) nm. If the first-order angle of diffraction (2*theta) is found to be (4.50x10^1) ° for the (311) set of planes in this metal, what wavelength of monochromatic x-radiation (in nm) must have been used for the diffraction? Use scientific notation with 3 significant figures (X.YZ x 10^n). Note that Avenue automatically enters x10, so you only need to enter X.YZ and n.
