And what we've been talking about with all of these properties are, of course, how can we figure out what that is for a certain atom by looking at the periodic table, so we want to think about the periodic trend for atomic radius.

对于我们讲过的这些性质，我们所讨论的一直都是,当然是，我们如何能够判断某一个原子的这些性质,通过观察周期表，因此我们需要思考一下原子半径的周期性规律。

And what we can do is we can also use the Schrodinger equation to make these accurate predictions for any other atom that we want to talk about in the periodic table.

我们能做的是,我们可以使用,薛定谔方程去做一些,关于我们想要讨论的元素周期表,中任何一个原子的预测。

So similarly, as we now move up only one more atom in the table, 3 so to an atomic number of three or lithium, now we're going from six variables all the way to nine variables.

类似地就像我们现在,移动到周期表中仅仅多一个电子的情况，移动到一个原子数为，或者锂元素,现在我们从6个变量到了9个变量。
