In case of `p_(z)` orbital, the________is a nodal plane.

A

`xz-`plane

B

`xy`-plane

C

`yz`-plane

D

`z`-plane

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The `p` orbitals are dumbbell-shaped rather than spherical, with their electron distribution concentrated in identical lobes on either side of the nucleus. Since the lobes of the `p_(z)` orbital are oriented along the `z`-axis, the `xy`-plane is a nodel plane.
