Question
Calculate the total number of angular nodes and radial nodes present in 3p orbital.
Advertisements
Solution
The number of radial nodes is given by n – l – 1, where n is the principal quantum number, l is the azimuthal quantum number.
The number of angular nodes is given by n – l, where n is the principal quantum number, l is the azimuthal quantum number.
Here n = 3 and l = 1
Thus, angular nodes = 3 – 1 = 2 and radial node = 3 – 1 – 1 = 1.
