    Actually this was one of the questions in the previous semester........and I have no clue
    We wish to verify that an infinite potential well of width L has eigenfunctions
    given by
    2 φn(x) = sin(knx), (15) L
    with energy En = n2kn
    2/2m, where kn = (n + 1)π/L. We can do so by plugging the eigenfunctions into the energy eigenvalue equation:
    n2 d2ψ Eψˆ = Eψ ⇒ − = Eψ, (16) 2m dx2
    where we have restricted ourselves to 0 ≤ x ≤ L, so V (x) = 0. The left hand side is given
    by
    n2 d2ψ n2 d2 2 n2k2 2 − = − sin(knx) = n sin(knx) = Enφn, (17) 2m dx2 2m dx2 L 2m L
    so our eigenfunctions are indeed solutions to the system. The fact that kn = (n + 1)π/L
    follows from the need to satisfy the boundary conditions φn(0) = φn(L) = 0.

      The bottom was an attempt to draw a 3-dimensional picture of the various orbitals and the probability density of the electrons. The middle row is a depiction of the Schrodinger equation for the electron positions. The top row is the graph depicting the probability of finding the electron at that range. We have a playlist with dozens of videos in the quantum mechanics section that desribe all that in mathematical detail.

    • @MichelvanBiezen

      The Shrodinger equation (middle row) does not show probability. It simply represents an energy equation which can be used to calculate the probability seen in the top row.

    I just wanted to ask you since I have a Chemistry quiz next week, how we could switch from the probability density functions, to the probability graphs. Thank you for your amazing videos!

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  9 лет назад +1

      +Hermione Granger
      The Schrodinger equation describing the electron in the innermost orbit for hydrogen is:
      Psi = (1/sqrt(pi) * a^(3/2))* e^(-r/a)
      when you square that equation you will get the probability density function describing the most probable location for the electron
      Probability = (Psi)^2
      At that point it is a matter of knowing how to graph an e^(-x) function (time to brush up on graphing exponential functions)

    Thank you so much for this video. But I'm confused as to the meaning of |phi|^2 and the Radial distribution function for the hydrogen atom. R(r) peaks at the Bohr radius, meaning the greatest chance of finding an electron is at this radius. |phi|^2 peaks at r=0, meaning the electron is mostly to be found at or in the nucleus. Both statements cannot be true os where's my confusion? Thanks again!

    so all atoms have the same pattern of orbitals 1s 2s 2p etc. but each atom has different energy levels. So within the eg 2s orbital, there are different numbers or different distances of the energy levels within different atoms of elements? (since energy levels are unique to each atom)

      The density of probability is just a mathematical concept. The real value you are looking for is the probability of finding the particle, which as you can see goes to zero at the center.

    This video is actually good but how come the probability of finding an electron become s zero at some points, as it is always uncertain we can't directly say that there's zero probability at some points right

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  4 года назад

      The concept of the probability of zero at "a point" is a purely mathematical concept and does not exist in the real world. For example, when you throw a ball straight up, is there a "point" where the ball reaches zero velocity before it comes back down. Mathematically, yes, but in the real world no. The ball spends zero time at its highest point.

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  4 года назад +1

      The wave function is described by the Schrodinger equation and does not really have a physical meaning. But when we square the wave function and normalize it (so that the integration over all space equals 1), then it gives us the probability of finding the electron in any one place. So it is the probability functions that are graphed and which give us the information we are looking for.

    Thank you for the nice video! But there is one point that might be revised.
    In approx. 6 min, the teacher said that there is no probability of existence in the tail of the probability function.
    But as r(distance) increases, the probability goes nearly zero but it cannot be said "it is zero."

    • @MichelvanBiezen
      @MichelvanBiezen  10 лет назад +2

      BlackWisps,
      Actually this implies that electrons don't revolve around the nucleus like a planet around the Sun.
      The probability density function is simply an indication as to where you are more likely to find the electron at any point in time. The S-orbital do have a spherical shell which means that there is no dependency on angle, only on radius.
