Consider the following orbitals `3s, 2p_(x), 4d_(xy),4d_(z^(2)), 3d_(x^(2)-y^(2)),3p_(y),4s,4p_(z)` and find total number of orbital (s) having even number of nodal plane.

Answer

5

Explanation

3s: 0 Nodal plane `" " 4d_(z^(2)) : 0 " Nodal plane " " " 4s : 0 " Nodal plane"`
`2p_(x) : 1 " Nodal plane" " " 3d_(x^(2)-y^(2)) : 2 " Nodal plane" " " 4p_(z) : 1` Nodal
`4d_(xy) : 2 " Nodal plane" " " 3p_(y) : 1 ` Nodal plane
`3s,4d_(xy),4d_(z^(2)),3d_(x^(2)=y^(2)),4s` (Five)
