Come up with a descriptive way to describe the phenomena of X ray diffraction to a class of elementary students and a separate class of middle school students. Be as creative and thorough as possible in your description and include diagrams, explanation of phenomena in a clear manner for the age group, and a worked example problem that shows how to use the diffraction angle to calculate the 3 most intense d spacings (interplanar spacings) for hydroxyapatite. Please sketch the atomic planes that cause these reflections.
