CHEM 4200: Physical Chemistry for Chemical Science I
This course covers quantum mechanics and spectroscopy, beginning with an overview of classical mechanics and the historical origins of quantum theory. Basic quantum mechanics problems including the particle in a box, rigid rotor, harmonic oscillator, and hydrogen atom will be discussed, leading to a description of chemical bonding and modern computational molecular orbital theory (Hartree-Fock).
