If the width of the clear space and ruled space in a diffraction grating is made equal, it will result in the zeroth order of diffraction being suppressed. This is because the light will predominantly be diffracted into higher orders due to the equal spacing of the slits, leading to changes in the overall diffraction pattern observed.
A diffraction grating is an optical component with a series of closely spaced slits or grooves that diffract light into its individual wavelengths. It is typically constructed by etching these slits or grooves onto a flat surface of glass or a reflective coating using techniques such as photolithography or holography. The spacing and geometry of the slits determine the dispersion properties of the grating.
Maximum diffraction occurs when the size of the diffracting opening or obstacle is comparable in size to the wavelength of the wave passing through it. This condition allows for the most bending or spreading of the wave, resulting in a more pronounced diffraction pattern.
A fringe of equal inclination is a line or curve where the difference in path length between adjacent wavefronts is constant. These fringes can occur in interference patterns or diffraction patterns, where constructive and destructive interference creates areas of maximum and minimum intensity. Fringes of equal inclination are used to analyze the interference or diffraction of light waves.
When gap size is equal to wavelength
When light hits a mirror, it reflects off the surface at an equal but opposite angle to the angle at which it hit the mirror. This results in a clear and specular reflection.
The ultrasonic waves generated with the help of a quartz crystal inside the liquid in a container sets up standing wave pattern consisting of nodes and anti-nodes. The nodes are transparent and anti-nodes are opaque to the incident light. In effect the nodes and anti-nodes are acts like grating(a setup of large number of slits of equal distance) similar to that of rulings in diffraction grating. It is called as acoustic grating or aqua grating. Hence, by using the condition for diffraction, we can find the wavelength of ultrasound and thereby the velocity of sound in the liquid medium.

an arragement of very large no. of narrow slits of equal width placed side by side and seprated by equal opaque portion is known diffraction grating.when wavefront is incident on grating surface then light is obstructed by opaque portion and is transmitted by slit,such a grating is called plane transmission grating.in general it is constructed by ruling equidistant parallel line by diamond point on glass surface.
This is to maximize the effect of diffraction. The wavelength of the photon can be regarded as its 'size' . If it is too large then the slit is just to small for it and most of the photons will be absorbed or reflected. If it is far too small then the slit, in comparison, will be very large so most photons do not even notice its presence and will just continue on their merry way without interacting with it.

Diffraction is the bending of waves around an object.
it is costruacted by an arrangement consisting of a large number of parallel slits of a same width and separated by equal opaque spaces .

It doesn't...I thought that was clear enough...
it will equal whatever number you multiplied it by
