The probability density plots of 1 s and...

The probability density plots of 1 s and 2s orbitals are given in figure.

The density of dots in a region represetns the probability density of finding electrons in the region. On the basis of above diagram which of the following statements is incorrect?

A

1s and 2s orbitals are spherical in shape

B

The probability of finding the electron is maximum near the nucleus

C

The probability of finding the electron at a given distance is equal in all directions

D

The probability density of electrons for 2s orbital dec reases uniformly as distance from the nucleus increases.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The probability density of electrons in 2s orbital first increases then decreases and after that it begins to increases again as distance increases from nucleus.
