Quantum Mechanics I

At the end of the course the student should be able to:• Relate the Bohr model of the atom and the spectra of the hydrogen atom to atoms with higher atomic numbers; • Interpret the quantum effects for different types of radiation; •

• Explain the wave-particle nature of radiation;
• Derive the Schrödinger equation for a free particle and for a particle in the box, and relate it to all particle nature problems;
• Use the wuantum mechanics operators when solving problems.
