Which of the following scientists are correctly matched with a theory that they developed? Einstein reasoned light should have wave properties, like wavelength. Schrödinger developed a mathematical equation to show how electrons would be distributed in an atom. Louis de Broglie discovered the photoelectric effect. Heisenberg reasoned you could never know both the location and momentum of an electron.

Is that the only one that is correct? It's multiple choice, and can have multiple answers.

Heisenberg reasoned you could never know both the location and momentum of an electron. this is correct too these are not correct Einstein reasoned light should have wave properties, like wavelength. (Einstein study the photoelectric effect and come out with the idea that light has photons, the weave behaviour of light is much erlier than Einstein times Robert Hooke (1635-1703) developed a "pulse theory" and compared the spreading of light to that of waves in water in his 1665 Micrographia ("Observation XI"). In 1672 Hooke suggested that light's vibrations could be perpendicular to the direction of propagation. Christiaan Huygens (1629-1695) worked out a mathematical wave theory of light in 1678, and published it in his Treatise on light in 1690.( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light#Wave_theory) Louis de Broglie discovered the photoelectric effect. NO. this was proposted by Einstein. de Broglie was the proposer of the duality wave particle of light ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_de_Broglie#Matter_and_wave.E2.80.93particle_duality)

i thought de broglie proposed that particles have a wave function

yes you are right!
