Identify the incorrect statement from the following.
All the five 5d orbitals are different in size when compared to the respective 4d orbitals.
All the five 4d orbitals have shapes similar to the respective 3d orbitals.
In an atom, all the five 3d orbitals are equal in energy in the free state.
The shapes of orbitals are similar to each other; and orbitals are similar to each other.
To identify the incorrect statement, let's analyze each option:Option 1: All the five 5d orbitals are different in size when compared to the respective 4d orbitals.This statement is correct because 5d orbitals are larger than 4d orbitals due to the higher principal quantum number.Option 2: All the five 4d orbitals have shapes similar to the respective 3d orbitals.This statement is correct because the shape of orbitals is determined by the azimuthal quantum number (l), which is the same for 3d and 4d orbitals.
