Schrödinger Equation: Wave Equation for Particles
The classical wave eq for describing a standing wave function ψ
in one dimension: d2ψ/dx2 + (4π2/λ2)ψ = 0
From de Broglie: λ2 = h2/2mK = h2/[2m(E-V)]
d2ψ/dx2 + (4π2/λ2)ψ = d2ψ/dx2 + [8π2m(E-V)/h2]ψ = 0 or
-(h2/ 8π2m)(d2ψ/dx2) + Vψ = Eψ ………….(Eq 1)
Let’s define ‘momentum operator’, p^ = (h/2πi)(d/dx),
based on p = mv = mdx/dt (see p739).
And the kinetic energy operator:
K^ = p^2/2m = (1/2m)(h/2πi)2(d/dx)2 = - (h2/ 8π2m)(d2/dx2)…(Eq 2)
Eq 1 and Eq 2
K^ψ + Vψ = (K^ + V)ψ = Eψ or H^ψ = Eψ

Boundary Condition
constraint that reality places on the solutions to a
physically relevant equation (e.g., a quadratic equation having + &
- two solutions for concentration)
* Ψ is just the embodiment of de Broglie’s hypothesis of matter wave)
 Ψ must be smooth, single-valued, and finite everywhere in space
 Ψ must become small at large distances r from the nucleus (proton)
Boundary Condition yields quantum numbers
11
3.2 Quantum Numbers n, ℓ, and m
Wave function Ψ as the standing-wave for motions
Characterized by 3 integers, n, ℓ, m → quantum numbers
Why 3 quantum numbers? -> Because we have three dimensions
(x, y, z) or (r, ,  ) one quantum number for each dimension is
required.)
Principal quantum number, n
Energy from Schrödinger equation depends only on n
n = 1, 2, 3, ····
Azimuthal quantum no, ℓ (Angular momentum q. no.)
Associated with variation of an angle, θ
ℓ = 0, 1, 2, 3, ···· , n-1
Magnetic quantum no, m (Projection quantum no.)
behavior of H-atom in a magnetic field
m = - ℓ, - ℓ+1, -ℓ +2, ···,-1, 0, 1, 2, ··· ℓ-1, ℓ
12
13
Degeneracy
“Normally” the energy should depend on all three quantum
numbers.
Hydrogen atom is special in that the energy depends only on
principal quantum number n.
Two or more sets of quantum numbers corresponding to the
same energy: referred as “degenerate”
for example) 200, 211, 210, 21-1 states have the same
energy.
Each n: given total energy → n2 possible combinations of
quantum numbers → degeneracy
14
Specification of the Energy: Ionization
Ionization energy, IE
Energy levels of hydrogen atom
Ionization continuum:
Electron’s energy is no longer quantized !
IE in excited state n is -En
15
Bohr – de Broglie Model
Specification of the Wave Functions: Orbitals
Schrödinger’s Wave Function
Ψ should be single valued, continuous as a function of Θ and Φ:
the wave meets itself as Θ and Φ cycle around the origin
← with quantum numbers
Ex: For n = 3 (compare the one orbit in the Bohr-de Broglie model)
32 (nine) different ways the electron can vibrate to form
a standing wave → 9 degeneracy
Orbitals
Mulliken: Ψ = a 3D Schrödinger’s wave function. He suggested the
term, ‘orbital’, to refer to Ψ (= a 3D Schrödinger’s wave function) as a
replacement of Bohr’s orbit
Radial part, Rnℓ(r)
Laguerre polynomial of (n-1) degree
(highest power = rn-1) multiplied by e-r/(na0 )
Here, * a0 ← Bohr’s radius
Angular part, Yℓm(θ,Ф) Legendre function (sin θ & cos θ) x eimФ

Nodes: places where the wave passes through zero amplitude

n = 2, ℓ =1, m = 0 → 2p0 orbital : R21 Y10
· Ф = 0 → cylindrical symmetry about the z-axis
· R21(r) → r/a0 no radial nodes except at the origin
· cos θ → angular node at θ = 90o, x-y nodal plane (positive/negative)
· r cos θ → z-axis 2p0 → labeled as 2pz
n = 2, ℓ = 1, m = ±1 → 2p+1 and 2p-1 (complex functions containing
both real and imaginary parts: a problem in graphing!)
Take their linear combinations to obtain
two real orbitals → constructed 2px and 2py
· Use Y11(θ,Ф) → e±iФ = cosФ ± i sinФ ← Euler’s formula was used
2px and 2py (real functions using Euler’s formula)
Px and py differ from pz only in the angular factors (orientations)

n = 3, ℓ = 0(3s), 1(3p), 2(3d)
Generalization
· ns orbital → n -1 radial nodes,
the same as the degree of R(r) polynomial (n-1 real roots)
· ℓ increases from 0 to n -1 → number of nodes stays same
· but, ℓ of the radial nodes → are exchanged for angular
nodes, in the form of nodal plane or nodal cone
· Algebraically, R(r) → loses one root for an increase in ℓ
by one and the degree of Y(θ,Ф) in cosθ sinθ
→ increases by one

The kinetic and potential energies are transformed into the
Hamiltonian which acts upon the wavefunction to give the
quantized energies of the system and the form of the
wavefunction so that other properties may be calculated.
The wave nature of the electron has been clearly shown in
experiments like the Davisson-Germer experiment. This raises
the question "What is the nature of the wave?“:
The wave is the wavefunction for the electron.
Then, what is the nature of the wavefunction??

3.4 Born’s Interpretations of Orbitals

Schrödinger wavefunction: Not much physical significance, just a
tool for predicting atomic properties

Mulliken: Orbitals as a replacement of the planet-like orbits of the
Bohr model

Bohr: Anything that could create a pulse in one of Geiger’s
electron detector tubes couldn’t be a smooth, continuous wave.
Is there anything more we can say about the orbitals of the hydrogen atom?

Born: Quantum version of the orbit of the electron. In those
regions of space where the wave function is large, the electron is
more likely to be found in orbit. Intensity of light ∝ amplitude 2
32

Probability of finding an electron
Prob(r,θ,Ф) ∝ ┃Ψ(r,θ,Ф)┃2
probability probability amplitude (Ψ)
(3.13)
probability density
Normalization constant → a proportionality const. in Eq.(3.13)
to meet the total probability = 1.
┃Ψ┃2 x r2 sinθ dr dθ dФ → the probability of finding an
electron within that tiny volume
volume element
┃Ψ┃2 → electron density
-e┃Ψ┃2 → charge density
: “wave function must be the quantum version of the orbit of the
electrons”
: “in space where the wave function is large, the electron is more
likely to be found in orbit”
33
In 1926 he collaborated with his student
Werner Heisenberg to develop the
mathematical formulation of the wave
function in the new quantum theory.
He later showed, in the work for which
he is perhaps best known, that the
solution of the Schrödinger equation has
a statistical meaning of physical
significance.
Max Born (1882-1970, Germany)
1926, Probability density function
1954 Nobel Prize in Physics
Einstein: “Probability cloud” is a strange
sort of mist made up of a single electron !
“The theory yields a lot, but it hardly
brings us any closer to the secret of the
Old One. In any case I am convinced that
He does not throw dice.”

Bohr’s orbits: Each orbit has a fixed radius,
rn = n2 ao ; the electron is always found at r

2s RDF:
the electrons spend most of its time in the range of outer peak,
and much less around the inner peak. How ??
How the electron gets from the outer to inner region
without trapping into the node at the nodal space ??
Key is in the Wave Property of Electrons: the standing wave
has amplitude everywhere simultaneously
Outer turning point – In Newton’s mechanics, a bound particle
cannot stray beyond a fixed radius.
Quantum tunneling – An electron in the orbital has a small but
finite probability beyond the outer turning point.
3.5 Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle
e- passing through x
slit becomes uncertain
in v, by Δx, due to the
wave nature.
λ ~ 0.1 Å or 105 eV,
short enough to
resolve the position of
e-, can distroy or at
least disturb the atom.
IE (H) = 13.6 eV
Figure 3.10.Two views of Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle
3.5 Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle
So, “you cannot accurately measure Δx and Δpx at the same time.”
Position uncertainty x momentum uncertainty ≥ h/4π, at the same time
( = 5.27 x 10-35J s )
(This principle is valid between any pair of the conjugate variables)
ΔE Δ t ≥ h / 4
(In effect, the electron’s energy fluctuates within narrow bounds, and what is
supposed as the electron’s energy is, in fact, an average value over the very
narrow time parameter)
(This fluctuating electron energy might suggest a violation of the conservation
of energy, but not if the electron is exchanging energy at the Planck level with
other electrons or particles)
The basis for the initial realization of fundamental uncertainties in the ability of an
experimenter to measure more than one quantum variable at a time.
43
Why does a hydrogen atom have a ground state, and
what determines the energy of that state?

To require the electron to be roughly a distance ao from the
nucleus implies an uncertainty in momentum ∆p ~ h/ao

p cannot be much less than ∆p

p ~ h/ao and K ~ p2/m ~ h2/mao2

Since ao ~ h2/me2, K ~ me4/h2 ~ -E1 (page 59, Eq. 2-13)

Confining a particle more tightly increases its kinetic energy →
The electron cannot collapse into the proton even though the
Coulomb attraction drawing it in → Small particle in bound
states show a lowest state where K is nonzero; the particle is
said to possess zero point energy.

“The battle with Born grew so intense in the early
months of 1927 that Heisenberg reportedly burst into
tears at one point,…”

closer to the secret of the Old One. In any case I am
convinced that He does not throw dice”

3.6 Orbitals and Orbits: An Analogy
Orbitals – analysis in terms of radial and angular motion
meaning of n, ℓ, and m.
Electronic motion → in-and-out, ① vibrational (r), and
round-and-round, ② rotational (Θ,Φ)motions.
i) Vibrational motion
· distance r changes with the motion
· determined by n - ℓ- 1, specifies the no. of nodes in the
radial function
· smaller ℓ for a given n → more vibration
ii) Rotational motion
· angles θ and Ф change with the motion
· determined directly by ℓ
Department of Chemistry, KAIST
45
iii) Orientations of Rotational Plane
· z-axis projection of the angular momentum → determines
the possible orientations of the plane of rotation.
For fixed ℓ
m = 0 → The rotational plane is contained in the z-axis.
m = /ℓ/ → The plane is fixed in the x-y plane, perpendicular
to the z-axis.
m = 0-ℓ →The plane is “tilted”.
m = -ℓ → The rotation is clockwise.
m = +ℓ → The rotation is counter clockwise.

Classical analogous orbits of the electron in 1s, 2s and 2p orbitals

47
Bohr’s correspondence principle
As the quantum numbers get larger and larger, the
classical analogy is found to get better and better.
In the limit of large quantum numbers, the behavior of
any mechanical system becomes classical.
Quantum mechanics contains Newtonian mechanics
as a special case.
