| Column – 1 | Column – 2 | Column – 3 |
| (I) Is orbital | (i) | (P) ![]() |
| (II) 2s orbital | (ii) One radial node | (Q) Probability density at nucleus |
| (III) orbital | (iii) | (R) Probability density is maximum at nucleus |
| (IV) orbital | (iv) -plane is a nodal plane | (S) Energy needed to excite an electron from state to state is times the energy needed to excite electron from state to state. |
- A
- B
- C
- Correct answerD
Solution
We have to select only correct combination hence, the option (iv) is correct.
For 1s orbital :
Energy needed to excite an electron : from to
Energy needed to excite an electron : from to
(hence, true)
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
