The probability density plots of 1s and 2s orbitals diagrams are given below :
The density of dots in a region represents the probability density of finding electrons in the region.
On the basis of the above diagram which of the following statements is incorrect?
1. | 1s and 2s orbitals are spherical in shape |
2. | The probability of finding the electron is maximum near the nucleus |
3. | The probability of finding the electron at a given distance is equal in all directions |
4. | The probability density of electrons for 2s orbital decreases uniformly as the distance from the nucleus increases |
Hint: Probability of finding an electron decreases uniformly as the distance from the nucleus increases
