Hi all!
What are your predictions for content/styles of questions to be examined in physics HSC 2021.

How should we go about preparing at this stage?

Thanks!!!

About Schrodinger, to what extent do we need to know about his model and contributions?
I don't fully understand everything to do with his model so yeah.

I think maybe just that it predicts the position of the electron based on a probability density function, and just know that it is very similar to older models as the densities roughly correlate to the different energy levels as predicted by Niels Bohr. Also I would want to know that it was based on Heisenberg's uncertainty principle where one cannot know both the momentum and position of a quantum particle for certain. But even these things that i said are a reach and i highly doubt anything outside these things would be tested.

this section is also very vague in the syllabus as " analyse the contribution of Schrödinger to the current model of the atom " is the only mention of Schrodinger in any of the dot points.
