The energy of a characteristic x-ray photon created when an L shell electron fills a Kshell
vacancy in a tungsten atom will have which of the following energies?
a. 69.5 keV
b. 57.5 keV
c. 91.5 keV
d. 12 keV - Answer b. 57.5 keV
,The energy of characteristic photons is determined by the difference in binding energies
between the two electron shells involved in the process, which in this question are K and L
shells. 69.5 (K shell) minus 12 (L shell) equals 57.5.
