Chapter 7, Problem 7.60QE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The region of space with high probability to find electron for pz orbital has to be explained. Also, the smallest probability to find an electron for pz has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Erwin Schrödinger gave a model to describe the behavior of an electron in atoms through a wave function. The wave function is defined as a mathematical function for an electron wave that gives the amplitude of the wave at any point in space. It is represented by a Greek letter Ψ.

The wave function of an electron has no physical significance but when the square of its absolute magnitude takes then it gives a probability of finding electron at any particular point of time.

The expression of the probability of finding electrons is as follows:

  Probability of finding electrons=|Ψ2|        (1)

The acceptable wave function is characterized by a set of four quantum numbers. These quantum numbers are related to the shape, size of the electron wave and the location of the electron in space.
