QUESTION:
Explain how the motion of an electron is different from the motion of a baseball. What is a probability map?
ANSWER:Solution 17Q
Step 1:
The final destination of baseball can be easily determine because it has fixed motion.But in case of electron there is no fixed motion or we can say that there is no fixed trajectory so the motion of electrons and baseball differs depends on their paths.
The area where the probability of finding electron is maximum is called as orbital.
