Answer:

A) ψ² describes the probability of finding an electron in space.

Explanation:

The Austrian physicist Erwin Schrödinger formulated an equation that describes the behavior and energies of submicroscopic particles in general.

The Schrödinger equation i<u>ncorporates both particle behavior</u>, in terms of <u>mass m</u>, and wave behavior, in terms of a <u><em>wave function ψ</em></u>, which depends on the location in space of the system (such as an electron in an atom).

The probability of finding the electron in a certain region in space is proportional to the square of the wave function, ψ². According to wave theory, the intensity of light is proportional to the square of the amplitude of the wave, or ψ². <u>The most likely place to find a photon is</u> where the intensity is greatest, that is, <u>where the value of ψ² is greatest</u>. A similar argument associates ψ² with the likelihood of finding an electron in regions surrounding the nucleus.

A student carries out this chemical reaction in a beaker:
nydimaria [60]

Answer:The correct answer is option (C).

Explanation:

Zn+CuCl_2\rightarrow Cu+ZnCl_2

After the reaction between Zinc and copper(II) chloride, Zinc chloride and copper will be obtained as a product. This reaction occurs because zinc is more reactive than copper which displaces the copper from its aqueous solution.

The student will expect to find copper metal at bottom of the beaker with aqueous solution of zinc chloride.

Hence the correct answer is option (C).
