One of the major requirement in atomic structure is determination of location of electron inside an atom. The wave mechanical model establishes this in accordance with Heisenberg's uncertainity principle through the concept of orbitals. The orbitals are defined as that '3D' space in which probability of finding electron is maximum and are represented by wave functions Psi_(n,l,m) where n,l and m are quantum number. The variation of Psi is analysed in terms of polar coordinates and hence Psi = f( r, 0 , phi) where 'r' represents radius vector and 0 and phi represents angle (/_) Which the radius vector with x-axis respectively. The expressions of Psi_(r,0, phi) are often given in terms of sigma instead of r where sigma=(2Zr)/(nalpha_(0)) and Z = atomic number and n= shell number. Which of the following statement is incorrect with respect to Psi_((r)) us. r graph for H-atom?

Answer»

For a 3d orbital, the graphwill not intersect the x-axis at any finite, non-zero value.
For a 4s orbital, the graph will intersect at exactly THREE distinct, non-zero finite points.
For 1S orbital the sign of the `Psi_((R))` will not CHANGE after at any radial distance.
For 3p orbital , the graph will intersect x-axis at two non-zero distinct points.
