STANDARD Chemistry Quantum Numbers MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 11
Orbital having 3 angular nodes and 3 total nodes is
A
5p
B
3d
C
4f
D
6d
Correct Answer
Option C
Detailed Explanation
Number of spherical/radial nodes in any orbital = n − l − 1. Number of planar/angular nodes in orbital = l = 3. Total number of nodes in any orbital = n − 1 = 3, n = 4. Thus, the orbital is 4f.
