Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Davisson-Germer experiment establishes the wave nature of electrons.
Statement II: If electrons have wave nature, they can interfere and show diffraction.
In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the options given below:-
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
In Davisson-Germer experiment the electrons exhibit diffraction there by proving that electrons have wave nature. Hence both statement are correct. Both the options are correct by concept
