Question

electrons can move only in​

Answer 1

Answer:

Electrons can move only in the orbitals.

Answer 2

correct question:

Electrons can move only in​ ____.

Electrons can move only in​ orbitals.

How do electrons move in orbitals?

• The electron is described by a probabilistic quantum wave function that spreads out and vibrates while retaining discrete properties such as mass.
• When an electron wave function is bound in a stable state in an atom, it spreads out into a specific shape known as a "orbital."
• The orbital does not include or describe the average position of a small hard electron orbiting around. The electron, rather, is the orbital.

Hence, Only orbitals allow electrons to move.
