Question

The no. of radial nodes and angular node in 3p orbitals are
(A) 1,0
(B) 2,1
(C) 1,1
(D) 2,0​

Answer 1

Answer:

b) 2,1

Explanation:

Radial and Angular Nodes. For example, determine the nodes in the 3pz orbital, given that n = 3 and ℓ = 1 (because it is a p orbital). ... There are four nodes total (5-1=4) and there are two angular nodes (d orbital has a quantum number ℓ=2) on the xz and zy planes. This means there there must be two radial node

Answer 2

Answer:(1,1) option c

Explanation:

Radial nodes =n-l-1

Angular nodes=l

So angular nodes =1

And radial nodes =3-1-1
