LEARNING OUTCOMES:
- to explain the experimental facts that were not in accord with the laws of classical physics,
- to state the postulates of quantum mechanics, set the Schrödinger equation for simple systems (particle in a box, harmonic oscillator) and to describe the solutions obtained,
- to describe to procedure for solving the Schrödinger equation for the hydrogen atom and to explain the physical meaning of the solutions obtained,
- to apply the postulates of quantum mechanics to description of molecules, to corroborate the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and to the describe the structure of energy levels in diatomic and polyatomic molecules on a qualitative level,
- to distinguish between the absorption, emission and scattering of electromagnetic radiation and to state which information regarding the molecular structure can be deduced from rotation, vibration and electronic spectra of molecules,
- to calculate the molecular bond length from the corresponding rotation spectra of linear molecules
- to estimate the dissociation energy of diatomic molecules from the corresponding vibration spectra (IR and Raman) and to determine the bond length in certain vibration energy levels from the vibration-rotation transitions
- to apply the Frank-Condon principle in description of electronic spectra of molecules, and to distinguish between the progression and sequence lines in vibronic transitions
- to classify the physical-chemical processes following the absorption of electromagnetic radiation and to distinguish between the mechanisms governing the luminescence (phosphorescence and fluorescence)
- to describe the conditions leading to stimulated emission of radiation and to state the unique properties of laser radiation
- to describe the principles governing the magnetic resonance: NMR (chemical shifts and
nuclear spin coupling) and EPR (nuclear and electron spin coupling)
- to distinguish between the properties of ideal and real gases and to explain how these differences affect the properties of gaseous substances
- to define the distribution of molecular speeds and velocities in gases and to apply these distributions for calculation of physical-chemical properties of ideal gases
- to define the Boltzmann distribution law and apply it for deducing the distribution of molecules among quantum states and the corresponding energy levels
