Question

number of radial nodes and angular nodes and total nodes for 2p & 3p orbital is​

Answer 1

Answer:

2p orbital has n=2 and l=1. The number of angular nodes = l = 1. The number of radial nodes = [ (n-1) - l] = [1 - 1] = 0. Total Number of Nodes=1

Answer 2

Answer:

The number of radial nodes is related to the principal quantum number, n. In general, a np orbital has (n - 2) radial nodes, so the 2p-orbital has (2 - 2) = 0 radial nodes. The higher p-orbitals (3p, 4p, 5p, 6p, and 7p) are more complex since they do have spherical nodes.For the 3p orbital, the '3' means that 'n' = 3 and 'p' shows that 'ℓ' = 1. 'ℓ' also equals the number of angular nodes which means there is one angular node present. Using the equation for radial nodes, n - ℓ - 1 = 3 - 1 - 1 = 1. Thus there is one radial nodes.
