The [course_title] course focuses on the fundamental elements of quantum mechanics that deal with the smallest scales of energy levels of atoms and subatomic particles. The course starts by present a short history of the development of quantum theory. As the course proceeded, you will be able to learn about the properties of particles and waves and wave mechanics. The course shows you the applications to simple systems such as the particle in a box, the harmonic oscillator, the rigid rotor and the hydrogen atom, atomic structure and the Periodic Table. Finally, you will learn the applications to chemical bonding that covers valence bond and molecular orbital theory, molecular structure, spectroscopy.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
