Best Colleges in Theoretical Chemistry Program

This page introduces the top colleges in Theoretical Chemistry program. University of California-Berkeley is ranked first in Theoretical Chemistry program ranking and California Institute of Technology is placed in second. Next describes the Theoretical Chemistry program in general.

Theoretical chemistry seeks to provide explanations to chemical and physical observations. Should the properties derived from the quantum theory give a good account of the above mentioned phenomena, we derive consequences using the same theory. Should the derived consequences fall too far from the experimental evidence, we go to a different theory. G. Lewis proposed that chemical properties originated from the electrons of the atom's valence shell, ever since the theoretical chemistry has dealt with modelling of the outer electrons of interacting atoms or molecules in a reaction.[read more at wiki]
