The wave function, ψn, l, ml is a mathematical function whose value depends upon spherical polar coordinates r, θ, ϕ of the electron and characterized by the quantum numbers n, l and ml . Here r is the distance from the nucleus, θ is colatitude and ϕ is azimuth. In the mathematical functions given in the Table, Z is the atomic number and ao is Bohr radius

(I) 1s orbital(i) ψn, l, ml Zao32 e-Zreo(P)
(II) 2s orbital(ii) One radial node(Q) Probability density at the nucleus 1ao3.
(III) 2pz orbital(iii) ψn, l, ml Zao52re-Zr2aocosθ(R) Probability density is maximum at the nucleus.
(IV) 3dz2 orbital(iv) xy -plane is a nodal plane(S) Energy needed to excite an electron from n=2 state to n=4 state is 2732 times the energy needed to excite are electron from n=2 state to n=6 state.

For the given orbital in column 1, the only correct combination for any hydrogen-like species is

Question diagram: The wave function, ψ n , l , m l is a mathematical function

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

A  IV iv R incorrect, because, dz2  has no nodal plane.

B  II ii P correct, because 2s orbital has 1 radial node.

C  III iii P incorrect, because probability density for 2p at nucleus is zero.

D  I ii S incorrect, because 1s orbital has no radial node.
