Question 22
For the archimedene molecule shown in Q21 above, indicate ALL symmetry elements that are
present:
Note: I am not asking for the number of such symmetry elements, just whether at least one is
present.
E (identity)
C3 (3-fold rotational axis)
C2 (2-fold rotational axis)
Osigma-h (horizontal mirror plane)
sigma-v (vertical mirror plane)
i (center of inversion)
S3 (3-fold improper rotational axis)
OS4 (4-fold improper rotational axis)
