JEE MainChemistryStructure of AtomMCQ+4 / −1

The number of radial node/s for

3 p

orbital is :

A
3
B
2
C
1
D
4

View written solutionFree

Correct answer: C

Formula for radial nodes

For any orbital, the number of radial nodes is given by:

$\text{Radial nodes} = n - l - 1$

where:

$n$ = principal quantum number
$l$ = azimuthal quantum number

Identify quantum numbers for $3p$ orbital

For a $3p$ orbital:

$n = 3$
For a $p$ -orbital, $l = 1$

Substitute into the formula

$\text{Radial nodes} = 3 - 1 - 1 = 1$

Match with the options

The number of radial nodes is 1, which corresponds to:

$\boxed{\text{Option C}}$

Verification with stored answer

Stored correct answer is C.

Our derived answer is also C, so they agree.
