Quantum Mechanics is a theory of mechanics, a branch of physics that deals with the motion of bodies and associated physical quantities such as energy and momentum. Quantum mechanics has had enormous success in explaining many of the features of our world. The individual behaviour of the microscopic particles that make up all forms of matter can often only be satisfactorily described using quantum mechanics. Chemical reactions involve either the transfer or the sharing of electrons between atoms. Therefore, the chemical reactivity/ properties of an element is primarily dependent upon the number of electrons in an atom of that element. Protons also play a significant role because the tendency for an atom to either lose, gain or share electrons is dependent upon the charge of the nucleus. This book promises to be extremely useful for graduate and postgraduate students of chemistry, physics and biochemistry. This text is a veritable mine of information on quantum mechanics.”
