Which is a result of the mathematically based quantum view of electrons in atoms?
A)The position of every electron in an atom is precisely known.
B)All electrons have the same position in atoms.
C)The most probable position of each electron can be predicted.
D)The position of electrons in atoms is not important.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mathematically based quantum view of electrons in atoms allows for prediction of the most probable position of each electron, but not a precise knowledge of the electron's position. Therefore, choice A is incorrect. Choice B is incorrect because electrons can occupy different energy levels and orbitals, resulting in different positions. Choice D is incorrect as electron position is a fundamental aspect of the quantum view of atoms.
