| Course description |
| Quantum chemistry is a field of physical chemistry that examines various properties of molecules theoretically and experimentally based on quantum mechanics which is completely different from classical mechanics. In this lecture, you will learn the basic principle of quantum mechanics as well as the fundamental about the quantum theory of translation, vibration, and rotation of molecules. Then you can understand the nature of quantum chemistry and spectroscopic principles of atoms and molecules. Therefore, this lecture is the basis of the contents of "Quantum chemistry II" and "Structural chemistry". |
| Expected Learning |
|
(1) Understanding the difference of physical description in classical mechanics and quantum mechanics. (2) Understanding of the wavefunction, Hamilton operator, and Schroedinger equation. (3) Calculating the Schroedinger equation in simple cases and finding the corresponding wavefunction and energy level. (4) Understanding of the quantization of the translational, vibrational and rotational energies. Diploma Policy Perspective of the Department: Please refer to the curriculum map of the course guide. |

| Assessment/Grading |
|
The grade evaluation in this online class is premised on all attendances, and comprehensively evaluates the attitude to learn, quizzes, report, and online tests. Standard study time set by the our university is required to get the grade. The rate of evaluation is as follows: Normal score: 30%, quizzes and assignment test: 30%, and online test: 40%. Grade will be given according to the following criteria by comprehensive evaluation: S: 90 points or more, A: 80 or more and less than 90 points, B: 70 or more and less than 80 points, C: 60 or more and less than 70 points. |
| Message from instructor(s) |
| In this lecture, many calculations such as derivations of numerous expressions, differentiation and integration will be appeared. While I would like to solve these calculations as much as possible during the lecture. |
