0.57 Angstroms and -0.48 Angstroms
   
-0.17 Angstroms and 0.34 Angstroms
   
0.17 Angstroms and -0.34 Angstroms
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given Data:

The electron having charge "q" is placed at the center.

A nucleus having 11 protons is placed at a distance of 5.7 Å from the center.

The size of each grid spacing is 1 Å.
