Question

The wave function for a particle must be normalizable because:________ a. the particle's angular momentum must be conserved. b. the particle cannot be in two places at the same time. c. the particle must be somewhere. d. the particle's momentum must be conserved. e. the particle's charge must be conserved

Answer 1

Answer:

C the particle must be somewhere.

Explanation:

This is because normalization of wave function means the maximum probability of finding a particle in a region is 1. And a Wave function describes the probability of finding a particle in region. Also Since it is a probability distribution, its integral over all space must be 1, explaining that the probability that the particle is somewhere and thus it must integrate to 1, meaning it must be it must be normalizable
