Q29 / 180 · KCET 2021 · Chemistry

The number of angular and radial nodes in $3 p$ orbital respectively are

  • A
    3, 1
  • Correct answer
    B
    1,1
  • C
    2,1
  • D
    2,3

Solution

For the given $3 p$ orbital, the number of angular nodes, $l=l$ (as it involve $p$ orbital) As $n=3$ and $l=1$ $\therefore$ Number of radial nodes $=n-l-l$ $=3-1-1=1$ Hence, angular and radial hodes in $3 p$ orbital respectively are 1,1 .

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
