Is it possible to find exact position of electron ? How do you find the position and velocity of an electron ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

No, as the electrons are very small, light of very short wavelength is required for this task. This short wavelength light interacts with the electron and disturbs the motion of electron. So it is not possible to find exact position and velocity of electron simultaneously. Whereas we can able to find the region where the probability of finding electron is more .
