The probability of finding an electron between s-orbital is zero. This place is called plane_.
Correct answer: A. Nodal
- A. Nodal
- B. Antinodal
- C. Non nodal
- D. Erect
Explanation
"Nodal" plane is a plane that passes through a nucleus where the probability of finding an electron between s-orbital is zero. Hence the answer is A.

About Shapes of Orbitals
Atomic orbitals are three-dimensional regions where an electron is most likely to be found, not fixed circular paths. The content covers the spherical s orbitals, dumbbell-shaped p orbitals, clover-shaped d orbitals, the orientations of orbitals, and how quantum numbers determine their shapes and energy levels.
