Homonuclear diatomic molecules belong to their own set due to the possession of an infinity fold axis of rotation and a horizontal plane of (*) symmetry.
Ligand group orbitals are classified based on which one of these entities they belong to when constructing molecular orbital diagrams. The identity operator E gives the degeneracy of the orbitals assigned to their labels. Homonuclear diatomic molecules belong to their own set due to the possession of an infinity fold axis of rotation and a horizontal plane of (*) symmetry. They can be divided into C and D class and their elements are listed in character tables. For 10 points—name these mathematical groups that give the number and nature of the symmetry elements for a given molecule.
