हिन्दीConsider the following schematic plots of orbital wavefunction (\( \psi_r \)) against distance (\( r \)) from the nucleus. The figure representing two radial nodes in the orbital is
View Answer & Solution
Correct answer · Option C
C
Explanation
Number of radial nodes is given by \( n - l - 1 \). For 3s orbital, number of radial nodes = \( 3 - 0 - 1 = 2 \), which corresponds to plot C showing two intersections with the r-axis.
