Try it on paper first. A hint, the key idea and the worked solution are here when you need them.
Find the number of radial nodes, angular nodes and total nodes of the orbitals , and .
; to (); to ; . A subshell has orbitals and a shell . Nodes: radial , angular , total . With many electrons, orbitals fill in order of , the smaller first for a tie.
Have you tried it?
Work it out on paper first. It is fine to get stuck or make a mistake: that is how we learn. When you are ready, go through the solution one step at a time, and check each step against your own.
Step 1. . Radial , angular , total .
Step 2. . Radial , angular , total .
Step 3. . Radial , angular , total .
Answer: : 3, 1, 4. : 2, 2, 4. : 5, 0, 5.
