(c) Zero (d) Either +ve or -ve​

Answer 1

Answer :-

A wave function has a positive value.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is (d) Either +ve or -ve.

Explanation:

• A wave function is just a mathematical function and is represented by- ψ (Psi). This function has no physical significance.
• It could have any value, positive, negative, real, or complex. When ψ is squared, ψ ², the values we get are real and positive.
• When ψ ² is high, there are high chances of finding an electron.
• When ψ ² is low, there are low chances of finding an electron.

Conclusion:

A wave function has either +ve or -ve value.
