Question

Which statement about Schrödinger's theory of the atomic model is true?

Answer 1

Answer : Option C) It explained the odds of finding the position of an electron.

Explanation : Schrödinger's theory of the atomic model is true for the probability of finding the electron around the nucleus. Schrödinger used odd mathematical equations to describe the likelihood of finding an electron in a certain position around the nucleus. This atomic model was known as the quantum mechanical model of the atom. He posed an equation which is now called as the Schordinger’s Wave Equation, which incorporates both the wave-like and particle-like behaviors of electrons, which stated that electrons can act like waves/light and particles. Which later helped to develop the uncertainty principle for finding the probable position of the electron.
