The number of radial nodes and angular nodes and total nodes for d-orbital can be represented as

A

(n - 2) radial nodes + 1 angular node, (n - 1) total nodes

B

(n - 1) radial nodes + 1 angular node, (n - 1) total nodes

C

(n - 3) radial nodes + 2 angular node, (n - l - 1) total nodes

D

(n - 3) radial nodes + 2 angular node, (n - 1) total nodes

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Total number of nodes = n - 1
For d-orbital, radial nodes = n - l - 1 = n - 3 and there are 2 angular nodes.
