Question

172. In which of the following orbital/orbitals radial node and angular nodes are same?
i) 4p
ii) 3p
iii) 5d
iv) 6f

Answer 1

Dear student,

Radial nodes = (n-l)
No. of angular nodes = (l)
The value of l for f orbital is 3.
Therefore, for 6f orbital,
n-l = 6-3=3
l=3

Therefore,

The answer is (iv).
