D:
Correct Answer
A
Explanation
The arrangement of particles in crystal lattices can be studied using X-rays. This technique is known as X-ray crystallography. X-rays are particularly useful because their wavelengths are on the order of interatomic distances in crystals, allowing them to diffract off the crystal lattice and produce a characteristic diffraction pattern. This diffraction pattern can then be analyzed to determine the arrangement of atoms within the crystal lattice.
