← ScienceWhich consequence results when normalization of quantum wave functions fails?
A)Probability density integrates to >1✓
B)Energy expectation value becomes imaginary
C)Uncertainty principle becomes violated
D)Pauli exclusion principle becomes violated
💡 Explanation
If normalization fails, the integral of the probability density will not equal one, because the Born interpretation requires the total probability equals one; therefore probabilities are overestimated, rather than obeying probability postulates under valid conditions.
