Bohr Model of the Hydrogen Atom Postulates • Certain orbits are stationary. • Photon emission occurs upon orbital trans. • Angular momentum is quantized. Matter Waves Louis de Broglie (1892 – 1987) l = h/p Constructive Interference (Standing Wave) Destructive Interference Hydrogen Atom Towards a Wave Equation Classical Wave Propagation Hamiltonian Mechanics H = T + V William Hamilton (1805 – 1865) Now What? The wave function contains all possible information about a system, so instead of speaking of “the state described by the wave function Y,” we simply say “the state Y.” Quantum Chemistry by Ira N. Levine Erwin Schrodinger (1887 – 1961) What is the Wave Function? Quantum mechanics does not say that an electron is distributed over a large region of space as a wave is distributed. Rather, it is the probability patterns (wave functions) used to describe the electron’s motion that behave like waves and satisfy a wave equation. Quantum Chemistry by Ira N. Levine Max Born (1882 – 1970)
