| dc.description.abstract | Scope of Study: The principle of quantum mechanics is a relatively new field and is generally above the level of the average high school student. This paper is concerned with the very basic explanation of quantum mechanics omitting the advanced mathematics on which the theory is based. | |
| dc.description.abstract | By use of the electron configuration of atoms, derived from quantum mechanics, a better understanding of the atom is available. Some of the simple explanations that can be based on this arrangement of the electrons are: bond types, geometry of the molecule, complex ions, transition metals, atom size, screening properties of electrons and effective nuclear charge. | |
