Assertion (A) : p orbital is dumb- bell shaped
Reason (R ) :Electron presents in p orbital can have any one of three value of magnetic quantum number i.e. `0,+1, or - 1`

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The probability of finding the electrons is maximum in two lobes on the opposite sides of the nucleus. This gives rise to a dump-bell shape for the p - orbital. The probability of finding a particular electron is equal in both the lobes.
