    Radial Distribution Function: Most Probable Distance from Nucleus

    [b]1. The radial distribution function for the 1s orbital of the hydrogen atom is given by the equation below. Where a = the Bohr radius. What is the most probable distance from the nucleus for an electron in this orbital? [b]2. P(r) = 4r^2 (1/a)^3 exp(-2/a) [b]3. Setting dP/dr = 0...
