    The download mentioned: Chemistrymadesimple.net/2

    In this episode we consider how quantum mechanics effects the atomic model and more:

    • There's more to electron shells
    • Subshells and orbitals
    • 3D shape of orbitals
    • Orbitals, bond angles and shape of molecules
    • The reason the periodic table gets broader down the table
