Data & Results

After spending some time on the Internet and in Excel, we managed to procure some decent data:

[math]\displaystyle{ d^{big}_{accepted} = 0.123 nm }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ d^{small}_{accepted} = 0.213 nm }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ d^{big}_{measured} = 0.139 }[/math] ± [math]\displaystyle{ 0.00808 nm }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ d^{small}_{measured} = 0.238 }[/math] ± [math]\displaystyle{ 0.0314 nm }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ % error^{big}=13.0% }[/math]

[math]\displaystyle{ % error^{small}=11.9% }[/math]

The notebook entry for all of this is found here, and we have two Excel files that show all of our data and calculations: Diffraction1.xls and Diffraction2.xls.
