Application of Group Theory in Chemistry (PDF)

by Ranajit Kumar Roy

This book has been designed to serve as a core text for BSc(Hons), MSc and MPhil students of chemistry as well as researchers.
In this book, topics related to group theory with their principles and mathematics is explained with inherent details. The fundamentals of symmetry are explained by using real-life examples from nature, art and architecture. Illustrations of symmetry operatives in various molecules have been given with detailed analogy.
Selection rules in all the branches of spectroscopy are explained in detail. It also covers the essential basics of group theory that are required for all sections of chemistry.
