(The Cl atom is in the center and is bonded to each of the 5 fluorine atoms.) b) Draw pictures showing how the p orbitals (x, y, and z) on Cl will transform under each operation of the group. c) Draw pictures showing how a i) dxy and a ii) dzz orbital on Cl would transform under each operation of the group. What are their Mulliken symbols? d) What are the irreducible representations for the SALCS of the 5 fluorine 2s orbitals? You do not need to draw a diagram or order the orbitals by energy, but for each molecular orbital symmetry, list all atomic orbitals and SALCs with that symmetry.
