Quantum Mechanics is
HARD

An Overview
Modeling
Quantum Mechanics
Lab!

Quantum Mechanics is
BIG But we’ll focus on a small piece

Let’s Start With Something simple
Where is Mr. Hall?

Again, Quantum Mechanics is
Weird But,
It makes useful predictions about our world

By combining quantum and classical physics,Levitt’s and Warshel’s Model dramatically sped up the
calculations, while still remaining accurate

LAB!!! But first, just a little more background
![Page 12: Chem in news](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060115/557cfdbad8b42a98158b4ed2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Procedure
1. Shine laser at blank surface, postulate what spliBng the beam will do
2. Glue a wire to the laser, bisecEng it in half 3. Measure spacing of bands 4. Determine the wavelength of the laser, using
the formula w=z*lambda/d
