Smmetr Operation and Smmetr Elements Smmetr Operation: A well-defined, non-translational moement of an object that produces a new orientation that is indistinguishable from the original object. Smmetr Element: A point, line or plane about which the smmetr operation is performed. line: smmetr element 8 o rotation: smmetr operation

Four kinds of Smmetr Elements and Smmetr Operations Required in Specifing Molecular Smmetr Mirror plane s: Reflection about the s plane How man mirror planes?
Four kinds of Smmetr Elements and Smmetr Operations Required in Specifing Molecular Smmetr Mirror plane s: Reflection about the s plane *s h : mirror planes perpendicular to the principal ais. *s : mirror planes containing the principal ais Unless it is s d. *s d : mirror planes bisecting,, or ais or bisecting C aes perpendicular to the principal ais. How to define molecular aes,,?. The principal ais is the ais.. If there are more than one possible principal ais, then the one that connects the most atoms is the ais.. If the molecule is planar, then the ais is the principal ais in that plane. The ais is perpendicular to that plane. in Miessler 4. If a molecule is planar and the ais is perpendicular to that plane, then the ais is the one that connects the most number of atoms. Actuall,, 4 are arbitrar.

Applications of Smmetr Polarit Polar molecule: a molecule with a permanent electric dipole moment. A molecule with a center of inersion i cannot hae a permanent dipole. A molecule cannot hae a permanent dipole perpendicular to an mirror plane. A molecule cannot hae a permanent dipole perpendicular to an ais of smmetr. Therefore, molecules haing both a C n ais and a perpendicular C ais or σ h cannot hae a dipole in an direction. Molecules belonging to an C nh, D, T, O or I groups cannot hae permanent dipole moment.
