18. The Second Great Question

20. TFDCB Where is the C-F Bond? C CC C F N Unshared Pair! Need to subtract F instead of “unbiased ” spherical F

21. Dunitz et al. (1981) Pathological Bonding  0.002 Å ! for average positions Typically vibrating by ±0.050 Å in the crystal

22. Dunitz et al. (1981) Pathological Bonding Surprising only for its beauty

24. Dunitz et al. (1981) Pathological Bonding Missing Bond ! Bent Bonds !

25. Lewis Pairs/Octets provide a pretty good bookkeeping device for keeping track of valence but they are hopelessly crude when it comes to describing actual electron distribution. There is electron sharing (~5% of Lewis's prediction). There are unshared "pairs" (<5% of Lewis's prediction).

26. Is there a Better Bond Theory, maybe even a Quantitative one? YES! Chemical Quantum Mechanics

27. Erwin Schrödinger (Zurich,1925) www.zbp.univie.ac.at/schrodinger

28. www.uni-leipzig.de/ ~gasse/gesch1.html "So in one of the next colloquia, Schrödinger gave a beautifully clear account of how de Broglie associated a wave with a particle…When he had finished, Debye casually remarked the he thought this way of talking was rather childish… he had learned that, to deal pro- perly with waves, one had to have a wave equation. It sounded rather trivial and did not seem to make a great impression, but Schrödinger evidently thought a bit more about the idea afterwards." Felix Bloch, Physics Today (1976) "Once at the end of a colloquium I heard Debye saying something like: Schrödinger, you are not working right now on very important problems anyway. Why don't you tell us sometime about that thesis of de Broglie?

29. Well, I have found one." "Just a few weeks later he gave another talk in the colloquium, which he started by saying: My colleague Debye suggested that one should have a wave equation: H  = E 

30. Stockholm (1933) www.th.physik.uni-frankfurt.de/~jr Paul Dirac Werner Heisenberg Erwin Schrödinger

31. Schrödinger Equation H  = E 

32. Leipzig (1931) American Institute of Physics Werner Heisenberg Felix Bloch Victor Weisskopf

33. Felix Bloch & Erich Hückel on  Gar Manches rechnet Erwin schon Mit seiner Wellenfunktion. Nur wissen möcht man gerne wohl, Was man sich dabei vorstell'n soll. Erwin with his Psi can do calculations, quite a few. We only wish that we could glean an inkling of what Psi could mean. (1926)

34.  Function of What? Named by "quantum numbers" (e.g. n,l,m ; 1s ; 3d xy ;  Function of Particle Position(s) [and time and "spin"] We focus first on one dimension, then three dimensions (one electron), then many-electron atoms, then many atoms, & finally functional groups. N particles  3N arguments! [sometimes 4N+1]

35. Schrödinger Equation H  = E  (for “stationary” states) time-independent

36. = H  = E  Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy = Total Energy Given - Nothing to do with  (Couloumb is just fine) Hold your breath! H  = E 

37. Kinetic Energy? m i v i 2  i Const 

40. Solving a Quantum Problem Given : a set of particles their masses & their potential energy law [ e.g. 1 Particle/1 Dimension : 1 amu & Hooke's Law ] To Find :  a Function of the position(s) of the particle(s) Such that H  /  is the same (E) everywhere AND  remains finite (single-valued, continuous,  2 integrable)

41. Much Harder for Many Particles Is it worth our effort?

42. Reward for Finding  Knowledge of Everything e.g. Allowed Energies Structure Dynamics Bonding Reactivity

43. The Jeopardy Approach Answer Problem  = sin (x)  = sin (ax)  = e x Kinetic Energy  = e -x C/m particle in free space a 2 C/m shorter wave  higher energy ’’ - C/m Const PE > TE ’’ (actually appears for electrons bound to nuclei at large distance, where 1/r ceases changing much!)

44. Rearranging Schr ö dinger to give a formula for curve tracing. C  Curvature of  m + V = E C  Curvature of  m (V- E) = Curves away from 0 for V>E; toward 0 for V<E. Since m, C, V(x) are given, this recipe allows tracing  (x) in steps, from initial  (0) [= 1], with initial slope [0], and a guessed E.
