Explanation:

The answer lies in how you measure the position of an electron. Experiments show that you will find the electron at some definite location, unlike a wave. But if you set up exactly the same situation and measure it again, you will find the electron in a different location, often far outside any experimental uncertainty in your measurement. Repeated measurements will display a statistical distribution of locations that appears wavelike. (See Figure 1.)

A graph is shown for intensity which is varying like a wave. Corresponding to the maximum point of the wave electrons are shown as small dots in three strips. These strips show different number of electrons with varying density of dots along the length of the strip. A larger number of electrons are in the first strip, a smaller number of electrons in the second strip, and very few electrons in third strip.

The building up of the diffraction pattern of electrons scattered from a crystal surface. Each electron arrives at a definite location, which cannot be precisely predicted. The overall distribution shown at the bottom can be predicted as the diffraction of waves having the de Broglie wavelength of the electrons.
