I have some question about electronic density propbablity
1- Is there really picture shown in Lab (( practically)). for probablity density of certain atoms
2- what is the evidence that shown distrubution of orbitals is true

I believe the answer to 2 is Chemistry.
 
For question 1 you may get the information you need by googling "scanning tunnel microscope".Like Nabeshin I think that the main evidence for question 2.comes from chemistry
 
In any case, if I understand your imprecise question correctly then the answer was given in an article in Nature in 2004: http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nature03183

You may need to expand your reason a little bit with explanation.
 
Thanks Dale I have been read the paper And know the answer thanks for all
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
