The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explain…

Shape of the D Orbital

Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.

Textbook Question

Chapter 11, Problem 11.93E

Graph the first five wavefunctions for the harmonic oscillators and their probabilities. Superimpose these graphs on the potential energy function for a harmonic oscillator and numerically determine the x values of the classical turning points. What is the probability that an oscillator will exist beyond the classical turning points? Do plots of the probability begin to show a distribution as expected by the correspondence principle?
