Quantum-mechanical atomic model

Layer 2 — Chemistryin the atomic-structure subtree

The canonical modern atomic model: electrons are described by wavefunctions ψ(r) that are eigenstates of the atomic Hamiltonian, giving quantised orbitals labelled by (n, ℓ, m, s). Explains all of chemistry in principle — spectra, bonding,…
