Which outcome occurs when an electron's wavefunction overlaps multiple potential energy minima?

💡 Explanation

Increased quantum tunneling probability occurs because the superposition of wavefunctions at multiple minima allows the electron to tunnel through barriers more easily. This wave function delocalization lowers the effective barrier width, therefore enhanced tunneling, rather than suppressed energy states.
