CHEM 462 - Physical Chemistry II

Credits: 4

Introduction to the theory of quantum mechanics including its applications to spectroscopy. As a continuation of 461, this course also will contain selected topics in thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. Students will explore the development of quantum mechanics from fundamental postulates using multivariable calculus. Laboratory work is designed to engage students in the practical application of theoretical principles and to expand their understanding of formal scientific communication.

Prerequisite(s): CHEM 461. MATH 335 is recommended but not required.
