Consider a 3p, orbital. Find the values of r (if any) such that the wave function is zero. Find the values of 0 (if any) such that the wave function is zero. Find the values of o (if any) such that the wave function is zero. Remember that nodes in 3D space are not points, but surfaces. Show how the information in (a,b,c) identifies or corresponds to any nodal spheres or nodal planes for the 3p, orbital.

Step 1

Since you have posted a question with multiple subparts, we are entitled to answer only first three sub-parts, please repost the question and do mention the subpart to be answered in another session.

 

Given:

Nodes (r) : A point or space in a orbital where electron density is zero is called a node.

angular node (θ) : it is a plane which passes through the nucleus and it is equal to the azimuthal quantum number l.

radial node () : a radial node is a sphere that arises when the radial wavefunction for an orbital is equal to zero.
