Proof for equation of radial probability distribution curve
Let take for the question context as the axiom of the quantum atomic theory this:
$|\Psi|^2$ is the probability density an electron occurs at the given point. $\Psi$ itself is a wave function as a ...

Which quantum numbers does the orbital angular momentum depend on?
Orbital angular momentum, like any other form of angular momentum, is a vector quantity.* Thus, it has both a magnitude as well as a direction.
The magnitude of the orbital angular momentum is given ...
