Modeling the MCAS Way

Abstract

The spdf-based orbital theory is a sophism. Things must be declared "different" at the electronic level to renounce classical physics. This paper shows that classical physics still operates at the electronic level! Electron particles are always there. Mass-to-wave/energy conversion and its reversal (duality) on-demand does not actually exist - a ruse that cloaks the negative-negative waive. There is no electron spin-reversal - a gimmick with "nmls" not even consistent orthogonality. The MCAS Way describes the behavior of electrons while preserving their wholeness, mutual orthogonality, and interactive adaptivity. Electrostatics of some simple molecules modeled the MCAS Way are presented. The orbital extent of an electron is shown to be finite while its electrostatic presence stretches to infinity. Electrons hardly ever occupy the region on the axis between two nuclei of a molecule. Excellent correspondence of NMR proton shift with the magnitude of the electrostatic field at the proton is found. Wholly integer quantum numbers identify the orbital spaces of an atom. Electrons do not have quantum numbers! The electron of the hydrogen atom is assigned the 11111 orbital; those of helium are in the 11111 and 11-111 orbitals; and so on. Unlike the static spdf designation, an electron moves to a different type orbital with sufficient electron loading of a shell! A quantum theory does not need duality! The current one, however, needs a different base model to treat particulates. Bimolecular substitution reactions are shown to be path-dependent with an electron transferred in the Transition State. Traditional microscopic reversibility is trashed.
