1) Consider the molecule [Nicl]. It is tetrahedral geometry and Ta symmetry Consider the sigma-bonding and determine a reducible representation for the molecule. Determine the irreducible representation. Draw a qualitative molecular orbital diagram with electrons and symmetry labels. Consider carefully the oxidation state of the metal and ligands and fill in electrons thoughtfully. You will only utilize the 3d orbitals on Nickel, not the 4s or 4p. The ligand group orbitals of the chlorine ligands should be lower in energy...

draw the naphthalene. use lines and arrows to show all symmetry operations in this molecule. what is its point group? #quantumchemistry 2. (15 points) Draw the molecule naphthalene. Use lines and arrows to show all the symmetry operations in this molecule. Do not use rectangles to show mirror planes unless it's a horizontal mirror plane, but you can always describe using a few words where a symmetry operation is located. What is the point group for naphthalene?
