Which outcome occurs when an electron's wave function overlaps two potential wells?

A)Quantum tunneling becomes more probable
B)Electron spin becomes strongly correlated
C)Energy levels become sharply quantized
D)Heisenberg uncertainty dominates momentum

💡 Explanation

Increased wave function overlap between potential wells amplifies **quantum tunneling** enabling the electron to pass through the barrier because the probability amplitude increases at the second well; therefore, tunneling increases, rather than correlation effects quantum coherence.
