Consider the following schematic plots of orbital wavefunction ( r) against distance (r) from the nucleus. [figure] The figure representing two radial nodes in the orbital is

  1. D
  2. A
  3. B
  4. C

Answer

(4) C

Solution

A radial node corresponds to a distance r (other than r = 0 or r = ) where the wavefunction r = 0 and changes sign (crosses the horizontal axis).

In plot C, the curve crosses the r = 0 line twice, indicating the presence of two radial nodes (e.g., as in a 3s orbital).

Answer: (4)
