MIT 5.111 Principles of Chemical Science, Fall 2014 View the complete course: https://ocw.mit.edu/5-111F14 Instructor: Catherine Drennan Where is that electron anyway? In this lecture, the probability of finding an electron at a particular distance from the nucleus is discussed. The concept of wavefunctions (orbitals) is introduced, and applications of electron spin are described. In particular, chemist Ben Ofori-Okai introduces us to the wonders of magnetic resonance imaging, also known as MRIs.
