Yes, that's right. The 3 mirror planes (σ) could be described more specifically as vertical mirror planes (σᵥ), since they are parallel to the principal axis of rotation
No, if I was doing that, it would be a disaster. Especially in a lecture where I have to talk about rotations and mirror images. Here's how it's done: ua-cam.com/video/YmvJVkyJbLc/v-deo.html
There are no elements of dynamical symmetry, examples with intramolecular rearrangement of the molecular parts, possessing symmetry in space of the impulses.
Thank you so much for these lectures! I am taking a PChem course and it is really helpful having these videos to review. Much appreciated!
Thanks for the comment. I'm glad they're helpful
im taking inorganic chem and this is helping visualize the rotations so much better.
For the NH3 at 4:38 would it then be a 3σv, being more specific?
yes

nicely done!
I understand a lot . Thank you so much
You're welcome. I'm very happy to have helped
Amazing! Are you really writing/drawing in the inverse direction?😀

Great content! It helped a lot!
I'm happy to hear that -- that's the goal of these videos
Nice sir

So helpful!!
Thanks!
Fine
So much work for something that doesn’t fucking matter lmao
what?
