Question

Electrons in an atom can only have certain energies. We say that the energy of the electron is . Bohr said that only certain orbits were possible for an electron in a H atom because the orbit must contain an number of electron wavelengths. deBroglie proposed that particles have properties. The wavefunction describing the electron is a function that describes everything about the electron. The wavefunction squared gives the of finding the electron at a point in space. A map of probability for finding the electron in 3 dimensions in space is called an .

Explanation / Answer

the probability of finding electron in 3 dimensions in space is called orbital
