Most Important Selected Qs for JEE AdvancedChemistryStructure of Atom
The orbital angular momentum of an electron in a subshell is 5 ~h . Select the incorrect statement(s) w.r.t the given subshell or orbitals belonging to the subshell.
Options
- AThe maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in the given subshell is 14
- BFor the given subshell corresponding to the minimum value of principal quantum number, radial node of each orb
- COrbitals belonging to the given subshell have three angular nodes each
- DOrbitals belonging to the given subshell can have same number of angular as well as radial nodes
Correct answer
C. Orbitals belonging to the given subshell have three angular nodes each
Step-by-step solution
Orbital angular momentum aligned & = I(I+1) h 2 = 5 ~h & I =4 i.e. g orbital aligned For 5 g orbitals radial nodes will be zero. Maximum number of electrons which can be accommodated is 18. For 9 g orbitals both angular and radial nodes will be equal to 4 .
