**Radial Wave Function for the 5f Orbital**

The radial wave function for the 5f orbital can be expressed as:

\[ R_{n,l}(r) = N \, e^{-r/5} \, r^3 \left(8 - \frac{2r}{5}\right) \]

where \( N \) is a normalization constant.

**Exercises:**

a. **What is \( n \)?**  
\( n = \) \( \boxed{5} \)

b. **What is \( l \)?**  
\( l = \) \( \boxed{3} \)

c. **How many nodes does this wave function have?**  
\(\# \text{ of nodes} = \) \( \boxed{1} \)

d. **Compute the numerical value of the integral**  

\[
\int_{0}^{\infty} r^2 \, R_{n,l}(r) \cdot R_{n,l}(r) \, dr = 
\]

\(\boxed{\text{Enter a number.}}\)
