The ground state wave function of an electron in a hydrogen atom is given by ψ(r, θ, φ) = 1√π a03 e−r/a0, where a0 is the Bohr radius. If the position vector is given by r = xî + yî + zk̂, what is the uncertainty (error) in the measurement of Z, i.e., ΔZ?
- 1a0√2✓
- 22 a0
- 3√32 a0
- 434 a0
Correct answer
a0√2
