Thank you. Yes, I'm referring to the 1s H-atom.
Mathematically it makes perfect sense: if r=0 then the radial distribution function is zero. So let's say we take a concentric sphere with the inner surface being the surface of the nucleus, and the outer surface at a distance dr from the...
Okay, this is a really basic question. I'm just learning the basics of QM now.
I can't wrap my head around the idea that the radial distribution function goes to zero as r-->0 but that the probability density as at a maximum as r-->zero. How can this be?
Thanks!
