Question

Based on the correspondence principle, would you expect the electron to behave more like a classical particle in the 2s or in the 5s subshell? Check all that apply. Check

a) The 5s electron should act more classically than the 2s in the region close to the nucleus that they both occupy.

b) At large r measured properties of the 2s electron will show much more quantum-like behavior, even more so than the 5s.

c) At large r measured properties of the 5s electron will show much more quantum-like behavior, even more so than the 2s.

d) The 2s electron should act more classically than the 5s in the region close to the nucleus that they both occupy.
