Question

The wave mechanical model of an atom is based upon which of the following equations?

• A. Schrodinger's equation
• B. De Broglie's equation
• C. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle
• D. All the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All the above

Wave mechanical model:
Developed by schrodinger, this model is based on the particle and wave nature of electron is known as wave mechanical model of atom. The motion of electron around nucleus is round motion and may be considered to be analogous to the standing waves the waves which are generated by plucking the stretched string. The amplitude of the standing wave is independent of time and is a function of the distance from one fixed end.
