An orbital has $n = 5$ and 2 radial nodes. Select the correct statements.

AIt has two angular nodes.
BThe orbital angular momentum is $6 ℏ$ .
CThe subshell can hold 10 electrons.
DIt is a 5p orbital.

Answer: A, B, C

n - l - 1 = 2

gives

l = 2

, a 5d orbital: 2 angular nodes (A),

L = 6 ℏ

(B), 5 orbitals so 10 electrons (C). D is false.
