About Structure of Atom Video Lectures
Sub course of In-depth CBSE Plus ISEET Advance & IIT JEE/AIEEE test preparation. This course reviews shells, sub-shells and orbitals followed by a detailed handling of Quantum numbers. The course helps develop intuition about electron velocity and energy variance with respect to quantum numbers; The course also introduces concepts like Pauli exclusion principle and Heisenberg Uncertainty principle and finally the Schrodinger wave equation (as a physical concept of standing waves)
| Included in Structure of Atom video lectures | Description |

Concept that azimuthal quantum number tell the shape of the orbital; Dependency of orbital angular momentum on azimuthal quantum number (l); Duality of electron motion around the nucleus; Discussion on magnetic quantum number, example of px py and pz orbitals in the p-subshell designated by 3 magnetic quantum numbers (m) = -1 0 and +1; Total number of orbitals (magnetic quantum numbers) = 2l + 1;
|
| Quantum Numbers Part 3 |
Intuition about electron velocity and energy variance with respect to quantum numbers; Examples based on discussion on quantum numbers; Spin quantum number and use of Pauli exclusion principle; Introduction to Heisenberg Uncertainty principle;
|
| Schrodinger Wave Equation |
Revision of all concepts in quantum numbers; Schrodinger wave equation (as a physical concept of standing waves); Electron as a wave which has amplitude Si and the concept that Si square is the probability of finding electrons as a function of the distance from nucleus, and using Schrodinger wave equation to visualize the *regions* where probability of electrons is highest; For s subshells: concept of nodes and nodal surfaces (e.g. between 1s and 2s surfaces) where probability of finding electrons is zero; For p subshells: concept of nodal planes by visualizing the planes where probability of finding electron is zero; Concept of radial or spherical nodes and angular nodes; Introduction to radial distribution factor (RDF); Number of maxima, number of nodal points and number of angular nodes in a RDF;
