Which electron has a higher probability of being found at 4 Å of the nucleus, one in a 2s orbital or one in a 2p orbital?

Respuesta :

Answer:

one in a 2s orbital

Explanation:

Because of the peak near the nucleus in the 2s curve there is a higher probability of finding a 2s within 4 Å of the nucleus. In a multi-electron atom an electron in a 2s orbital will have a lower energy than one in a 2p orbital
