PH253: Exam 2

Exam 2 is this Thursday, Nov. 4 during the normal class period. The rules are basically the same as last time:

• You can bring in one sheet of normal 8.5x11in paper front & back, or two sheets using one side only on each. 
• You will also get a formula sheet with the exam.
• There will be 6 problems, you choose 4 to solve.

The coverage for the exam is, referring to your textbook sections:

• 2.4.4-8, 2.5 Wave functions, Schrodinger, etc.
• 3.2.1 Bohr model
• 3.3 Hydrogen

The relevant homework sets from this semester are HW4-7; additionally HW4-7 from this past spring are relevant (as is exam II and the final exam from this past spring).

I will draw all of the problems problems directly from your homework from this semester and the homework from last semester listed above (though in somewhat abbreviated form).

Study those sections of the text and your notes, look at the HW sets mentioned, and you will be fine. It is extremely unlikely that practice problems will appear.

I will try to post the formula sheet tomorrow (Wed) so you know what you don't need to bother including on your own sheet.
