Schrodinger wave equation, significance, wave function etc


What is Schrodinger wave equation ?  


Electrons
behave both as particles and as a wave. If the electrons behave as a wave, there must be a wave equation to describe their behaviour.

Schrodinger, gave a wave equation to describe the wave behaviour of electrons in atoms and molecules, called Schrodinger wave equation.

The Schrodinger wave equation for an electron wave propagating in three dimensions in space, is written as follows.


Where,  m = mass of electron,  h = plank`s constant,  E = total energy of electron,
V = electrostatic potential energy and  Ψ = wave function.
