For any hydrogen-like atomic orbital, the number of radial nodes is determined by the formula: [ \text{Number of radial nodes}=n-l-1 ] For a 4p orbital: * Principal quantum number, (n=4) * Azimuthal quantum number, (l=1), because a p orbital corresponds to (l=1) Therefore, [ \text{Radial nodes}=4-1-1=2 ] Thus, a
