Which outcome occurs when an electron encounters symmetrical potential barrier?

💡 Explanation

A real, finite probability for quantum tunnelingexists, because the electron's wavefunction extends into and propagates through the barrier; therefore, transmission occurs with reduced amplitude, rather than complete blockage or absorption.
