Figure 1 shows a X-ray diffraction pattern from a powdered aluminium sample. Th sample was exposed to X-rays of wavelength 1.542x10-10m from a Cuka X-ray source. Assuming the indexing of the lines shown in the figure is correct and that a lines are a result of first order diffraction, calculate the lattice parameter of the structure in nm. Verify your answer by repeating your measurement with a second line. Note the planar spacing d is related to the lattice parameter a by the equation: a d = √h² + k² + 1² Where h, k and I are the miller indices of the plane
