Title: Atomic structure.
Post by: shashi_7816 on September 30, 2004, 06:24:02 AM
electron in an atom occupies the place according to the probability distribution( according to quantum mechanics).
my question is that, is there any possibility of being 2p electron nearer to nucleus than 1s electron at any instant?
