What is the wave function of an electron in a Hydrogen atom?

Are you asking what it represents, or are you looking for the actual equation? For the latter, I suggest using a search engine.

If it's the former, it tells you information about the electron. From it you can find probabilities for where the electron might be found, and the energy state of the electron.
