The state of electron motion is described by wave function ψ, |ψ |? It represents the probability of electrons appearing in a unit volume somewhere in the extranuclear space, that is, the probability density. Electrons in different motion states have different | ψ |. Of course not. The higher the density, the more events occur, and vice versa.
If the density of black dots is used to represent the probability density of each electron, then |ψ|? The bigger and denser the black spots, the higher the probability density, and vice versa. The small black dots distributed outside the nucleus are like a negatively charged cloud, surrounding the nucleus. People call it an electronic cloud.
