How many normal modes and how many stretching vibrations will this molecule exhibit
Consider 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?
