← ScienceWhich consequence results when approximation methods improperly normalize trial wave functions?
A)Violation of the Pauli exclusion
B)Underestimated ground state energy✓
C)Uncertainty principle violation emerges
D)Angular momentum remains conserved always
💡 Explanation
Improper normalization effectively skews the probability distribution; this is because of the variation principle that ensures energy minimization. Therefore the eigenvalue derived underestimates the true ground state energy rather than violating angular momentum.
