Question

What is the importance of schrodinger wave equation?

Answer 1

The Schrodinger equation is used to find the allowed energy levels of quantum mechanical systems. The associated wave-function gives the probability of finding the particle at a certain position. The solution to this equation is a wave that describes the quantum aspects of a system.

Answer 2

${\huge{\underline{\green{Answer:}}}}$

Erwin Schrödinger, in 1926, proposed an equation called Schrödinger equation to describe the electron distributions in space and the allowed energy levels in atoms. This equation incorporates de Broglie’s concept of wave-particle duality and is consistent with Heisenbergun uncertainty principle. When Schrödinger equation is solved for the electron in a hydrogen atom, the solution gives the possible energy states the electron can occupy [and the corresponding wave function(s) (ψ) (which in fact are the mathematical functions) of the electron associated with each energy state].
