Consider the radial probability distributions of the orbitals (ie. 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p,. ) of a hydrogen atom (with one electron).


Suppose the hydrogen atom receives an extra electron and become a negative hydrogen ion with 2 electrons.


(I) Will the radial probability distributions of the orbitals hydrogen ion be different to that of the hydrogen atom?


(ii) Suppose we add more electrons to the hydrogen atom, will that change the radial probability distributions of the orbitals? (I mean causing a shift in the radial probability distribution of some orbitals because of electron-electron repulsion.)

Thank you very much for taking the time to read the question.
