  3. (C)(II) (ii) (P)✓ Correct
  4. (D)(III) (iii) (P)

Answer: (C)

Solution

For any hydrogen-like species:

(II) 2s orbital has (ii) one radial node (given by ).

The radial probability density for 2s has two maxima with one node between them, as shown in (P).

Therefore, the correct combination is (II) (ii) (P).

Answer: (C)
