(b) Identify the symmetry elements of CO₂. Then consider CO₂ as being constructed from a carbon atom and an O2. Show whether your fragment orbitals are symmetric or anti-symmetric with respect to each of these.
(c) Using the symmetry from part (b) identify which fragments can interact together and construct the corresponding molecular orbitals. To simplify this process, you can ignore the 20 orbital from O₂.
