Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The probability of finding an electron anywhere inside a sphere of radius
Concept Introduction:
A node is an area where the probability of finding the electron is zero. On the other hand, an atomic orbital refers to an area which is used to describe the wave-like behavior of either one electron or of the electron pair. The square of the wavefunction is used to find the probability of finding the electron around the nucleus in an atom.
