- List all the symmetry elements of a Cr(CO)6 molecule and identify the symmetry point group to which it belongs.arrow_forwardUsing its x, y, and z coordinates, construct the 15 x 15 matrix that describes the application of the S4 symmetry operation to square planar [PtCl 4]2- What is the character of this matrix?arrow_forwardConsider the character table given below for the point group D3h, which includes molecules like cyclopropane and BF3. Suppose has been already determined a reducible representation for the collective motions of one such molecule, Γ(3N). What combination of irreps should we remove from it to account for translations & rotations, thereby yielding the purely vibrational representation, Γvib?arrow_forward
- What are the symmetry species of the normal mode of vibration of CIO2?arrow_forwardWhat is the maximum degeneracy of the wavefunctions of a particle confined to the interior of an icosahedral nanoparticle?arrow_forwardDescribe the symmetry-adapted core and valence orbitals of H2O and H2S in the C2v point grouparrow_forward
- Identify the point groups to which the following objects belong: (i) a sphere, (ii) an isosceles triangle, (iii) an equilateral triangle, (iv) an unsharpened cylindrical pencil.arrow_forwardgiven the point group of NO2 is C2v, taking as a basis the N(2p), N(2s), and O(2p) orbitals provide the irreducible representations generated by these basis and construct the Symmetry Adapted Linear Combinations (SALC's)arrow_forwardDetermine whether the integral over x and y is necessarily zero in a molecule with symmetry D2 by using its symmetry properties.arrow_forward
