DW discusses the difficulty of building molecules using Cartesian coordinates and how the Z-matrix is much easier to use.
Background
These are videos of Dr. Williams’ CHEM Physical Chemistry Lectures at Sam Houston State University. They are provided for your benefit for studying if you are a student or for your curiosity if you are not a student.
This course is the Quantum Mechanics and Spectroscopy Course. DW teaches this course in a unique way with emphasis on the spectroscopy of the 1D Particle in a Box system and the early introduction of symmetry for interpreting spectroscopic results.
