Question

P is the probability of finding a 1s electron of hydrogen atom in a spherical shell of infinitesimal thickness, dr, at a distance r from the nucleus. The volume of this shell is $4 π r^{2} d r$ . The qualitative sketch of the dependence of P on r is

Q. Assertion: The plots of the probability density and the radial probability function versus distance

r

from the nucleus for any particular orbital are not identical.

Reason: Probability density is
