Tungsten (W) crystallizes in cubic structure. The edge length of the unit cell of this crystal structure is a = 3.1648 Å. When the X-ray diffraction experiment is performed, scattering occurs from the following planes: (110), (200), (211), (220), (310), (222), (321), (400), (411), (420), (332), (431)

Which of the x-rays scattered from the (110) and (200) planes has the greatest intensity?

Hint: The intensity of the x-ray scattered from any atom decreases as the scattering angle increases. Also note that λ / 2d = sinθ.
