Q. For $s$-orbitals, since ($\psi$ orbital wave function) is independent of angles, the probability density ($\psi\text{2}$) is

Structure of Atom

Solution:

For spherical orbital
$\psi =f(f)$ (r = distance from nucleus)
since $\psi$ (orbital) is independent of angles therefore probability $(\psi\text{2})$ also independent of angles and spherically symmetric
