Vedclass · Answer

(C) nodal plane is a plane where the probability of finding an electron is zero.$1$. $\sigma _{2s}$ molecular orbital has zero nodal planes perpendicular to the internuclear axis.$2$. $\pi _{2p_y}$ bonding molecular orbital has one nodal plane (the molecular plane itself).$3$. $\pi ^* _{2p_y}$ antibonding molecular orbital has two nodal planes: one is the molecular plane,and the other is a plane perpendicular to the internuclear axis passing between the nuclei.$4$. $\sigma ^* _{2p_z}$ antibonding molecular orbital has one nodal plane perpendicular to the internuclear axis.Thus,the $\pi ^* _{2p_y}$ antibonding molecular orbital has two nodal planes.
