- Determine which single symmetry operation of the following point groups is equivalent to the given combination of multiple symmetry operations. a In C2v, C2v=? b In C2h, iC2=? c In D6h, C6h=? d In D2d, C2C2=? e In Oh, iS4=?arrow_forwarda In the Td point group, an S41 improper rotation is equivalent to what other improper rotation? b In the D6h point group, the symmetry operation labeled C21 is equivalent to what other symmetry operation?arrow_forwardDetermine the symmetry species of the D3h point group for the sp2 hybrid orbitals, assuming that the C3 axis is coincident with the z-axis and that one of the orbitals lies along the positive x-axis. See Example 13.16.arrow_forward
- In your own words, explain why an object that has more symmetry elements is said to have higher symmetry than an object with fewer symmetry elements.arrow_forwardFigure 13.27 shows the structure of the molecule porphine. Figure 13.27 The structure of porphine. Determine the symmetry elements present in the molecule, and its point group. Does the point group change if an Fe2+ ion is substituted for the two hydrogen atoms in the center of the porphine ring?arrow_forwardThe Cu(H2O)62+ complex has octahedral symmetry. Is a transition from a T2g state to an Eg state allowed if the transition moment operator has a T1u symmetry label?arrow_forward
- Assume that x- polarized light can be assigned an E symmetry species in a system that has C4v symmetry. Can a transition from E state to a B2 state occur? Why or why not?arrow_forwardConstruct the symmetry-adapted linear combination molecular orbitals for hydrogen sulfide, H2S.arrow_forwardDetermine the point group of the following molecules. a cis1,2 Dichloroethylene b trans1,2 Dichloroethylene c Toluene, C6H5CH3 d 1,3-Cyclohexadiene.arrow_forward
- Identify the symmetry elements present in the following objects. a The Eiffel Tower. You may have to look up a picture of it if you dont remember its shape b Any book ignore the printing. c An octagonal wood block. d A jack from the set of jacks pictured here: Note that some of the points end differently.arrow_forwardLinearly polarized light can be assigned a specific irreducible representation of a symmetry point group. If the electronic ground state of methane has A1g symmetry and x- polarized light has the label T2, what are the symmetry labels of allowed excited electronic states? Use the Td character table in Appendix 3.arrow_forwardConstruct the Hckel determinants for cyclobutadiene and cyclopentadiene. In what ways are they alike? In what ways are they different?arrow_forward
