For an electron, with n=3 has only one radial node.
The orbital angular momentum of the electron will be :

A

`0`

B

`sqrt(6) h/(2pi)`

C

`sqrt(2) h/(2pi)`

D

`3(h/(2pi))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Number of radial nodes `=nl-1=1, n=3 :. l=1`.
Orbital angular momentum `=sqrt(l(l+1)) (h)/(2pi)=sqrt(2) (h)/(2pi)`
