CHM 443 - Quantum Mechanics & Molecular Spectroscopy

4 Credits
Students solve Schrodinger’s equation for several important model systems to explore the qualitative nature of quantum systems. They examine the nature of the covalent chemical bond theoretically, using both ab initio and semi-empirical treatments of molecular orbital theory and valence bond theory. Students also explore molecular spectroscopy through application of solved model quantum systems.
Prerequisites: MTH 141 , PHY 110 , and CHM 225  or CHM 240 .
