Step-by-step explanation:

Electron Density is nothing but finding of some electron in a tiny space of per unit volume. It is rather a probability of finding electron in per unit volume, it should be called electron probability density. And there is function Ψ^2 that represent probability of finding electron in some tiny volume of of the atom.
