Using a commercially available flat crystal spectrometer in a slightly modified form, an investigation was made of the peak intensity ratios (Kβ 5 /Kβ 1 ) and the relative intensities of Kβ″ to Kβ 5 in different oxidation states of 3d‐transition metal atoms existing in forms of oxidic compounds. The peak intensity ratios (Kβ 5 /Kβ 1 ) for V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni and Cu, as well as the peak profiles of Kβ″ and Kβ 5 for V, Cr and Mn, were investigated. Results suggest that changes in the intensities of the Kβ 5 and Kβ″ bands can be applied to determining the oxidation number of a metal atom in its oxide.
