11th class Chemistry - Louis.de Broglie Relationship

11th Class Online Chemistry Notes - Louis.de Broglie Relationship The de Broglie equation relates a moving particle’s wavelength with its momentum. The de Broglie wavelength is the wavelength, λ, associated with a massive particle and is related to its momentum, p, through the Planck constant, h: In other words, we can say that matter also behaves like waves. De Broglie proposed that just  as light has both wave-like and particle-like properties, electrons also have wave-like properties.  By rearranging the momentum equation stated in the above section, we find a relationship between the wavelength associated with an electron and its momentum through the Planck constant. According to L. de Broglie, the wavelength λ of a particle of mass m and velocity u is given by the relation: λ = h/mu Where h is Planck’s constant and mu is the momentum of the particle.
