Broadening of the XRD peak can be due to the instrument as well as due to the sample. Do calculate broadening caused by the sample (from which we calculate different parameters associated with the XRD of the sample, the instrumental broadening is to be subtracted first.

In this video, I have explained an instrumental broadening caused due to the X-ray source (i.e. due to the overlap of Kα1 and Kα2 peaks). In the case you want to further ask about it, please do comment on the specific video, I'll respond to it shortly. I have provided the practice as well as calculations files here. Thanks
