Quantum Mechanical Model

Paul Anderson introduces the quantum mechanical model, contrasting it with the shell diagram. He explains the uncertainty principle and electron spin, which led to the development of orbitals. Coulomb's Law is discussed, highlighting the limitations of the shell model. The video covers orbitals, quantum numbers, and electron configuration, emphasizing the need for complex equations and computers to predict atomic interactions. Schrodinger's equation is introduced as a tool for refining atomic models.
