The orbital having one radial node as well one angular node is:
Option A: 3p
$$n=3,\qquad l=1$$
Angular nodes: $$l=1$$
Radial nodes: $$n-l-1=3-1-1=1$$
Thus, 3p has 1 angular node and 1 radial node, matching the question.
Option B: 4f
$$n=4,\qquad l=3$$
Angular nodes: $$l=3$$
Radial nodes: $$n-l-1=4-3-1=0$$
Thus, 4f has 3 angular nodes and 0 radial nodes.
Option C: 4d
$$n=4,\qquad l=2$$
Angular nodes: $$l=2$$
Radial nodes: $$n-l-1=4-2-1=1$$
Thus, 4d has 2 angular nodes and 1 radial node.
Option D: 5d
$$n=5,\qquad l=2$$
Angular nodes: $$l=2$$
Radial nodes: $$n-l-1=5-2-1=2$$
Thus, 5d has 2 angular nodes and 2 radial nodes.
Correct option: (A)
