The wave function for the Is state of an electron in the hydrogen
atom is
VIs(P) =
e-p/ao
where ao is the Bohr radius. The probability of finding the electron in
a region W of R³ is equal to
J, P(x, y, 2) dV
where, in spherical coordinates,
p(p) = |V1s(P)²
Use integration in spherical coordinates to show that the probability of
finding the electron at a distance greater than the Bohr radius is equal to
5/e = 0.677. (The Bohr radius is ao =5.3 x 10-1" m, but this value
is not needed.)
The total probability of finding an electron in the hydrogen atom is related to the integral
∫ r2 e-2r/ao dr
Where r is the distance of the electron from the nucleus and ao is the Bohr radius. Evaluate thisintegral.
Consider the sp hybrid orbital of the H-atom:
