The second edition of Group Theory for Chemists uses diagrams and problem-solving to help students test and improve their understanding, including a new section on the application of group theory to electronic spectroscopy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart one covers the essentials of symmetry and group theory, including symmetry, point groups and representations. Part two deals with the application of group theory to vibrational spectroscopy, with chapters covering topics such as reducible representations and techniques of vibrational spectroscopy. In part three, group theory as applied to structure and bonding is considered, with chapters on the fundamentals of molecular orbital theory, octahedral complexes and ferrocene among other topics. Additionally in the second edition, part four focuses on the application of group theory to electronic spectroscopy, covering symmetry and selection rules, terms and configurations and d-d spectra.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on the author’s extensive experience teaching group theory to undergraduates, Group Theory for Chemists provides a focused and comprehensive study of group theory and its applications which is invaluable to the student of chemistry as well as those in related fields seeking an introduction to the topic.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: Symmetry and Groups\u003c\/b\u003e1: Symmetry2: Groups and Representations\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II: Application of Group Theory to Vibrational Spectroscopy\u003c\/b\u003e3: Reducible Representations4: Techniques of Vibrational Spectroscopy5: The Vibrational Spectrum of Xe(O)F4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart III: Application of Group Theory to Structure and Bonding\u003c\/b\u003e6: Fundamentals of Molecular Orbital Theory7: H2O Linear or Angular8: NH3 Planar or Pyramidal9: Octahedral Complexes10: Ferrocene\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart IV: Application of Group Theory to Electronic Spectroscopy\u003c\/b\u003e11: Symmetry and Selection Rules12: Terms and Configurations13: d-d Spectra\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Groups \u0026amp; group theory [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Groups \u0026amp; group theory\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Groups%20\u0026amp;%20group%20theory%20%5BPBG%5D%22\"\u003ePBG\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Woodhead Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46648228774168,"sku":"9780857092403","price":39.48,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780857092403_18838e1d-a08a-4f3e-acbf-25a7753bb5ec.jpg?v=1696781693","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/group-theory-for-chemists-fundamental-theory-and-applications-paperback-9780857092403","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
