Why x-ray diffraction cannot be used instead of diffraction grating?

Answer:
X-rays have wavelengths of the order of the atomic spacing. So atoms in crystal act like grating in optical diffraction where the spacing is much larger and so also is the wavelength of light. So we cannot make a picture of the scattering centers as the optical instruments (for example our eye) can do.
