Symmetry Properties of Molecular Vibrations

How does the picture change however if, instead of being interested in the AH4 molecule, we wanted the orbital diagram for a tetrahedral H4 molecule Now, putting the overlap integrals (x IX )= ij the normalization constants of [Pg.73]

Although this book is concerned with orbitals, and this chapter has so far described their symmetry properties, in several places we are concerned with the symmetry properties of the vibrations of molecules [9-11]. For a collection of N unconnected atoms, the total kinetic energy is simply the sum of the contributions from each (x, y, z) degree of freedom of each atom, namely, 3N of them. Now when the atoms are linked together, a nonlinear molecule with N atoms has three translational and three rotational degrees of freedom so that there are 3N 6 vibrational degrees of freedom (3N 5 for linear molecules) which describe the internal energy of the [Pg.73]

Vectors pointing in thex, y, and z directions used as a basis to determine the symmetry species of molecular vibrations. [Pg.74]

Notice that lowercase letters are used to describe the symmetry species of the vibrations. [Pg.74]

Set up a group multiplication table for trans-difluoroethylene as an example of the Clh group. The arrows by the hydrogen and fluorine atoms will help. Are any of the operations in the same class  [Pg.76]
