What is the difference between a 2p and a 3p orbital?

Question

a) the 3p orbital has two nodal planes, and 2p has one
b) the 3p orbital is farther from the nucleus than 2p
c) the 3p orbital is a diff. shape than the 2p orbital
d) both a and c

Answer 1

b

the number in front of the orbital denotes energy level.

the a answer is jibberish. the c answer would be right if the letters were different. s, p, d, f, g orbitals all have different shapes.

Answer 2

the number? haha, just being stupid
