"The wave function $(\Psi)$ of $2 \mathrm{~s}$ is given by $$ \Psi_{2 \mathrm{~s}}=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{2 \pi}}\left(\frac{1}{a_0}\right)^{1 / 2}\left(2-\frac{r}{a_0}\right) e^{-r / 2 a_0} $$ At $r=r_0$, radial node is formed. Thus, $r_0$ in terms of $a_0$"

Question

Accepted Answer

"

For radial node ${\psi _{2s}} = 0$

$\therefore$ $r = 2{a_0}$

"

The wave function $(\Psi)$ of $2 \mathrm{~s}$ is given by

$$ \Psi_{2 \mathrm{~s}}=\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{2 \pi}}\left(\frac{1}{a_0}\right)^{1 / 2}\left(2-\frac{r}{a_0}\right) e^{-r / 2 a_0} $$

At $r=r_0$, radial node is formed. Thus, $r_0$ in terms of $a_0$
