Q17 / 200 · Manipal (MET) 2014 · Chemistry
An atomic orbital has two angular nodes and one radial node. It is a
- A$2 p$ orbital
- B$3 p$ orbital
- C3d orbital
- Correct answerD$4 d$ orbital
Solution
Two angular nodes are found in $d$-orbitals. Also for a $d$-orbital to have one radial node it must be 4d. $[\because$ Number of radial nodes $=n-I-1]$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
