  1. A 0.123 nm
  2. B 0.0123 nm
  3. C 12.3 nm
  4. D 1.23 nm
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 0.0123 nm

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \lambda = \frac{1.226}{\sqrt{V}} \text{ nm} \) \( \lambda = \frac{1.226}{\sqrt{10 \times 10^3}} \text{ nm} \) \( \lambda = \frac{1.226}{100} \text{ nm} \) \( \lambda = 0.0123 \text{ nm} \)
