Select the correct statements about atomic orbital shapes and nodes.

  1. AAn s orbital has no angular node.
  2. BA p orbital has exactly one angular nodal plane.
  3. CA 2p orbital has one radial node.
  4. DAny d orbital has two angular nodes in total.

Answer: A, B, D

Angular nodes : 0 for s, 1 for p, 2 for d (A, B, D true). 2p has radial nodes, so C is false.
