What is the utility of this wavefunction?
Schrodinger used the idea of the electron as a standing wave to describe the (mathematically calculable) wavefunction, Psi What is the utility of this wavefunction? Psi describes the particular energy states available to an electron in an atom. Psi describes the orbitals available for stable electrons in an atom. Psi 2 descibes the probability of finding an electron near a particular point in space. The Psi solutions generate geometrical shapes describing the positions available to a stable electron distribution. a through d are correct. Show transcribed image text
