Cisplatin (cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II)) is the first platinum-based antitumor agent, and it is still widely used in chemotherapy, whereas the trans isomer is therapeutically inactive.**Diagram Explanation:**- **Structure A (cis):** - Labelled "cis (cisplatin)" - Contains a central platinum (Pt) atom. - Two chloride (Cl) ions and two ammonia (NH₃) groups. - The Cl ions are adjacent to each other.- **Structure B (trans):** - Labelled "trans" - Contains a central platinum (Pt) atom. - Two chloride (Cl) ions and two ammonia (NH₃) groups. - The Cl ions are opposite each other.**Questions:**a) Assign point group to A and B.b) Is it possible to distinguish A and B based on the Pt-Cl stretching vibrations using IR and/or Raman spectroscopic data? If so, explain how you could distinguish them using group theory.
