Q. The number of radial nodes and angular nodes for d-orbital can be represented as

Structure of Atom

Solution:

Total number of nodes = n - 1 For d-orbital, radial nodes = n - 3 and there are 2 angular nodes.
The number of angular nodes is given by l. i.e., for p, 1 angular node, for d , 2 angular nodes and so on.
