Solution

The correct option is B two
a plane passing through the nucleus on which the probability of finding electron is zero, is called a nodal plane. The number of nodal planes in an orbital is equal to azimuthal quantum number $(l)$ . For d orbitals azimuthal quantum number is 2. Therefore, d orbital has two nodal planes.
