Question
Chapter 9, Problem 9A.1DQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The role of Born-Oppenheimer approximation in the valence bond calculation of a molecular potential energy surface or curve is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The Schrodinger’s equation can be solved exactly for a hydrogen atom. However, the exact solution of the Schrödinger’s equation is not possible for other molecules as even the simplest molecule contains at least three particles. Therefore, Born-Oppenheimer approximation is used.
