Q31.The wave function (Ψ) of 2 s is given by 1/2 − Ψ2s = a0 1 ( a01 ) (2 r )e−r/2a0 2√2π At r = r0 , radial node is formed. Thus, r0 in terms of a0 (1) r0 = a0 (2) r0 = 4a0 (3) r0 = a02 (4) r0 = 2a0

What This Question Tests

This question tests the understanding of radial nodes in atomic orbitals, requiring the student to set the radial part of the wave function to zero to find the node's position.

Concepts Tested

Atomic wave functionRadial node condition

Formulas Used
