Most Important Selected Qs for JEE AdvancedChemistryStructure of Atom
The radial component of the wave function ( ) for an orbital in a unielectronic species is given as (r)= 3 81 3 a₀^ 3 / 2 (27- 18 r a₀ + 2 r^2 a₀^2 ) e^ - r 3 a₀ Select the correct statement(s) w.r.t the given orbital.
Options
- AThe given wave function represents any orbital with two radial nodes
- BThe given wave function represents only 3 s orbital
- CFor the given orbital, probability density at nucleus 1 a ₀^3
- DFor the given orbital, the radial distribution curve [ ^2(r) .4 r^2 . vs .r ] has two maxima
Correct answer
C. For the given orbital, probability density at nucleus 1 a ₀^3
Step-by-step solution
The given wave function represents 3s orbital only. Probability density at nucleus 1 a ₀^3 Radial distribution curve will have three maxima.
