i learned that we have to consider quantum effects at low temperatures and classical effects at high temperatures but i do not the physics behind it
can anyone explain it for me?
thanks in advance :)
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Very roughly, Bohr's correspondence principle says that in the limit of high quantum numbers, classical physics applies.
And at low temperatures, only states with low quantum numbers are occupied.

Hi. I have got question as in title. How can idea of instantaneous dipole moment for atoms like, for example hydrogen be consistent with idea of orbitals? At my level of knowledge London dispersion forces are derived taking into account Bohr model of atom. But we know today that this model is not correct. If it would be correct I understand that at each time electron is at some point at radius at some angle and there is dipole moment at this time from nucleus to electron at orbit. But how...
