The radial wave equation for a hydrogen atom is given by: Ψ = 116√4 ( 1a0 )3/2 [ (x - 1)(x2 - 8x + 12) ] e-x/2 where x = 2r / a0 and a0 is the radius of the first Bohr orbit. What are the minimum and maximum positions of the radial nodes from the nucleus?
- 1a0/2, 4a0
- 2a0/2, a0
- 3a0/2, 3a0
- 4a0, 3a0✓
Correct answer
a0, 3a0
