How are the wave functions of the two electrons in a He atom constructed from the individual orbital and spin wave functions? Write down the antisymmetric wave function of the configuration in determinantal form that contains both orbital and spin components for Ms=1 in He.
2.
Consider a helium atom.
(a) Sketch the system and write the Hamiltonian. Denote the term(s) in the operator that
make(s) the Schrödinger equation unsolvable.
(b) Given an excited-state configuration 1s 2s', express all possible excited-state
wavefunctions in terms of spatial and spin functions for the two electrons. For each, denote
the symmetry of the overall wavefunction, the spatial component, and the spin component
with respect to exchange.
For a He atom in the excited state with atomic electronic configuration 1s1 2s1:
write out the symmetric and antisymmetric spatial wavefunctions. These two are linear combination of ψ1s and ψ2s each with an electron in them.
combine each spatial wavefunction with the appropriate spin wavefunctions for two electrons (there are four of them) such that the total wavefunction is antisymmetric.
