1. (7 points) Symmetry is an important topic in chemistry because the symmetry of a molecule may affect its physical and chemical properties. One important task is to identify the point group of a given molecule. Please complete the following tasks for each molecule. Molecule Any LC₂ ? Any oh? Any ov?
