Online quantum chemistry textbook by C. David Sherrill from Georgia Tech. Material suitable for undergraduate and post-graduate college students.
Free Quantum Chemistry Textbooks
Graduate and advanced undergraduate chemistry majors are fortunate that there are so many free online quantum chemistry textbooks to choose from. Who knew? Even if your professor has not adopted one of these texts for your class, I have little doubt they can offer struggling students assistance with their studies.
Quantum chemistry is a subspecialty under the subject of theoretical chemistry. It is the application of quantum mechanics for explaining and predicting chemical behaviors. Much of the field of study centers around the “Schrödinger equation for determining the energy levels of molecules and the molecules’ properties such as conductance, charge distribution, and reactivity”
