Open the structure file for problem 3.38: this shows the structure of 0s04, which has Td symmetry,

(a) Orientate the molecule so that you are looking down an O-Os bond, 0 atom towards you. What rotation axis runs along this bond?


(b) The character table for the Td point group shows the notation ‘8C3’. What does this mean? By manipulating the structure, perform the corresponding symmetry operations on OsO4.
