The wave function of 3s and `3p_(z)` orbitals are given by :
`Psi_(3s) = 1/(9sqrt3) ((1)/(4pi))^(1//2) ((Z)/(sigma_(0)))^(3//2)(6-6sigma+sigma)e^(-sigma//2)`
`Psi_(3p_(z))=1/(9sqrt6)((3)/(4pi))^(1//2)((Z)/(sigma_(0)))^(3//2)(4-sigma)sigmae^(-sigma//2)cos0,`
`sigma=(2Zr)/(nalpha_(0))`
where`alpha_(0)=1st` Bohr radius , Z= charge number of nucleus, r= distance from nucleus.
From this we can conclude:

A

Number of nodal surface for `3p_(z)` & `3s` orbitals is equal.

B

The angualr nodal surface of `3p_(z)` orbital has the equation `theta=(pi)/(2)`

C

The radial nodal surfaces of 3 orbital and `3p_(z)` orbital are at equal distance from the nucleus.

D

3s electron have greater penetrating power into the nucleus in comparison to 3p electrons.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the wave functions of the 3s and 3p_z orbitals, we will analyze the given wave functions to determine the number of radial and angular nodes for each orbital. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Wave Functions**: The wave functions for the 3s and 3p_z orbitals are given as: \[ \Psi_{3s} = \frac{1}{9\sqrt{3}} \left(\frac{1}{4\pi}\right)^{1/2} \left(\frac{Z}{\sigma_0}\right)^{3/2} (6 - 6\sigma + \sigma)e^{-\sigma/2} \] \[ \Psi_{3p_z} = \frac{1}{9\sqrt{6}} \left(\frac{3}{4\pi}\right)^{1/2} \left(\frac{Z}{\sigma_0}\right)^{3/2} (4 - \sigma)\sigma e^{-\sigma/2} \cos \theta \] where \(\sigma = \frac{2Zr}{n\alpha_0}\). 2. **Finding Radial Nodes for 3s Orbital**: - Set the wave function \(\Psi_{3s} = 0\): \[ 6 - 6\sigma + \sigma = 0 \] - This simplifies to: \[ \sigma^2 - 6\sigma + 6 = 0 \] - Using the quadratic formula: \[ \sigma = \frac{6 \pm \sqrt{(-6)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 6}}{2 \cdot 1} = \frac{6 \pm \sqrt{12}}{2} = 3 \pm \sqrt{3} \] - Thus, the radial nodes for the 3s orbital are at: \[ \sigma = 3 + \sqrt{3} \quad \text{and} \quad \sigma = 3 - \sqrt{3} \] 3. **Finding Radial Nodes for 3p_z Orbital**: - Set the wave function \(\Psi_{3p_z} = 0\): \[ (4 - \sigma)\sigma = 0 \] - This gives: \[ \sigma = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad \sigma = 4 \] - Since \(\sigma = 0\) corresponds to \(r = 0\), we discard it. Thus, the radial node for the 3p_z orbital is at: \[ \sigma = 4 \] 4. **Finding Angular Nodes for 3p_z Orbital**: - The angular part of the wave function involves \(\cos \theta\): \[ \cos \theta = 0 \implies \theta = \frac{\pi}{2} \] - This indicates one angular node. 5. **Summary of Nodes**: - For the **3s orbital**: - Radial nodes: 2 (from the two solutions for \(\sigma\)). - Angular nodes: 0. - For the **3p_z orbital**: - Radial nodes: 1 (from \(\sigma = 4\)). - Angular nodes: 1 (from \(\cos \theta = 0\)). ### Conclusion: - The total number of nodal surfaces for the 3s orbital is 2 (both radial), and for the 3p_z orbital, it is 2 (1 radial and 1 angular).

To solve the problem regarding the wave functions of the 3s and 3p_z orbitals, we will analyze the given wave functions to determine the number of radial and angular nodes for each orbital. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Wave Functions**: The wave functions for the 3s and 3p_z orbitals are given as: \[ \Psi_{3s} = \frac{1}{9\sqrt{3}} \left(\frac{1}{4\pi}\right)^{1/2} \left(\frac{Z}{\sigma_0}\right)^{3/2} (6 - 6\sigma + \sigma)e^{-\sigma/2} ...
