Are two electrons in an hydrogen orbital positionally dependent ?

mardi 1 avril 2014

Hi,



I was wondering if 2 electrons in an 1s-orbital of a hydrogen anion (or alternatively neutral helium) are positionally dependent. By that I mean if some knowledge about one electron's position would somewhat give knowledge about the other ? Or is it completely nonsense to talk about positions in an orbital as the electrons are distributed and never have a specific position at all (even theoretically) ? And if that is the case, are there other correlations besides position (similar to their spin which has to be opposite for the two electrons in the same orbital, so knowing one determines the other) ?



Thanks and cheers
