Which of the following is true concerning y? A) wdescribes the probability of finding an electron in space. B) ya describes the exact path of electron motion in an orbital. C) w? describes the electronic structure of the atom according to the Bohr model. D) w describes the exact volume of an atom. E) w2 describes the size of an atom.

wdescribes the probability of finding an electron in space.

Explanation:

The quantum mechanical model of the atom assigns wave properties to the electron. This is in accordance with Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

The probability of finding the electron in a given volume element is given as the square of the wave function while the wave function itself does not really have a physically significant meaning.

However, the wave function is a mathematical function that contains a detailed information about the behavior of an electron.

a rain shadow is a dry region of land on the side that is protected against the prevailing winds of a mountain range. the prevailing winds are the winds that occur most of the time in a particular place of the earth

prevailing winds carry air toward the mountain range. as the air rises up over a mountain range, the air cools, water vapor condenses, and clouds form. on this side of the mountains, called the windward side, precipitation falls in the form of  rain  or snow. this dry air produces a  rain shadow.
