This question has statement and statement . Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements
Statement 1 : Davisson - germer experiment established the wave nature of electrons.
Statement 2 : If electrons have wave nature, they can interfere and show diffraction.
Options
- AStatement is false, Statement is true
- BStatement is true, Statement is false
- CStatement is true, Statement is the correct explanation for statement
- DStatement is true, Statement is true, Statement is not the correct explanation for statement .
Correct answer
C. Statement is true, Statement is the correct explanation for statement
Step-by-step solution
Davisson - Germer experiment showed that electron beams can undergo diffraction when passed through atomic crystals. This shows the wave nature of electrons as waves can exhibit interference and diffraction.
