Question One (10 points) Compounds containing the cube-shaped cluster Cu8 can be synthesized. Using group theory, determine the symmetry of the Cu-Cu bond stretches and indicate how many modes are infra-red active and/or Raman active. [Hint – follow which bonds move or don’t move under the symmetry operations of the group]

Question Three Compounds containing the cubic-shaped cluster Cus can be synthesized. Using group theory, determine the symmetry of the Cu-Cu bond stretches and indicate how many modes are infra-red active and/or Raman active.
