QUESTION:
How does the probability cloud of the electron in a hydrogen atom relate to the orbit described by Niels Bohr?
ANSWER:Step 1 of 3
Schrodinger equation can only tell the likelihood of finding an electron at the particular position - or what fraction of measurements will find the electron in a particular region, while Bohr's model says that electrons are in orbits with certain energy and at a certain radius, around the nucleus.
