Final Answer : (c) Assertion is true but reason is false.
Steps :
1) No. of radial nodes = n + l - 1
No. of angular nodes = l
Therefore, No of Radial and Angular nodes depends on Principal Quantum Number and Azimuthal quantum Number.
2) In 3p orbital,
n = 3
l = 1 ,
So,
No. of radial nodes = 3 -1-1 = 1
No. of angular nodes = 1
Therefore, Assertion is true but reason is false
