1 electron volt = #sf(1.6xx10^(-19)color(white)(x)J)#
We can equate this to the kinetic energy of the electron.
#:.##sf(1/2mv^2=1.6xx10^(-19)color(white)(x)J)#
The mass of the electron (ignoring relativistic effects) =#sf(9.1xx10^(-31)color(white)(x)"kg")#
#:.##sf(v^2=(2xx1.6xx10^(-19))/(9.1xx10^(-31))=0.35xx10^(12))#
#sf(v=sqrt(0.35xx10^(12))=5.91xx10^(5)color(white)(x)"m/s")#
Now we use the de Broglie expression:
#sf(lambda=h/(mv)#
#:.##sf(lambda=(6.63xx10^(-34))/(9.1xx10^(-31)xx5.91xx10^5)color(white)(x)m)#
#sf(lambda=1.23xx10^(-9)color(white)(x)m)#
#sf(lambda=1.23color(white)(x)nm)#
