Course Contents
Introduction, symmetry elements and symmetry operations, Introduction to groups.
Symmetry points groups. Class structure, Representations and character tables, chemical
applications of group theory.
Course Synopsis
The students will be able to learn the different symmetry operations apply them on a variety of molecules to determine the point groups of the molecules. These point groups would be further used to determine the reducible and irreducible representations for use in evaluation of hybridisation patterns of the molecules and the role of Pi orbitals in bonding.
Course Learning Outcomes
After studying this course, the students will be able to:
-learn various symmetry operations
-learn point group notation
-learn the use of point groups in determination of symmetry of molecules
-learn the application of point groups in spectroscopy
