What is Moseley's Experiment?

Moseley's experiment demonstrated the relationship between X-ray frequencies and atomic numbers of elements. By bombarding elements with high-energy electrons, he measured the resulting X-ray emissions and found that the square root of the frequency of the emitted X-rays is directly proportional to the atomic number. This provided evidence for the correct ordering of elements in the periodic table and helped establish atomic numbers as fundamental properties of elements.
