Chapter 4 Symmetry and its Applications Symmetry = do something to a molecule and have it look the same

Reducible vs. Irreducible Representations of Groups: Example: effect of operations on x, y, z axes alone Examine the effect of the operation on the x, y, and z axes. If unchanged, character = 1; if reversed, character = -1.

Character Tables Mullikan symbols Irreducibile represenations

Order = # symmetry operations = 6 (sum of numbers on top) Definitions by Example: Order = # symmetry operations = 6 (sum of numbers on top) Classes = grouping of similar operations = 3 (number of groups on top) Dimensions = # under E operation Order of group = (characters under E)2

Symmetry Applications: Vibrations 1. Examine x, y, z changes for each atom. 2. An atom that moves gets zeros for each. 3. Those not moving get 1 or -1 for each axis. 4. Add them up to get reducible representation for atomic motions. 5. Break reducible representation up to get list of irreducible representation. # irrrep= 1/order (#operations in class)(character of redrep)(character of irrerep) 6. All motions = degrees of freedom = 3n Translations = 3 and go by x, y, z functions. Rotations = 3 and go by Rx. Ry, and Rz functions. 7. Vibrations are what’s left over. IR active translate as x, y, z functions. Raman active translate as xy, xz, yz, z2, etc. functions.
