Hydrogen Atom in Spherical Coordinates (III)
Differential equation for F(")
Solution:
Quantization:
Differential equation for T(!)
Solution:
Quantization:
Differential equation for R(r)
Solution:
Quantization:
Eigenenergies of one electron atoms
Eigenvalues (energies) for the solutions:
Hydrogen
(note: energy equation is the same as Bohr’s)
Three quantum numbers:
[principal] energy
[azimuthal] angular momentum: s, p, d, f, ..
[magnetic] orientation in space
(note: one more quantum
number to come … Spin !)
Because the energy of oneelectron atoms depends on n
only, we have degeneracy;
i.e. several solutions (with
different l, ml) having the
same energy.
