Part 6: Picking Point Groups using Character Tables and Group Theory

In this video I talk about how to find point groups using the flow chart method.

Basic Formula:
1) Rule out low symmetry
2) Rule out High symmetry
3) Based on the rotation axes decide on C or D family, and find the primary rotation axis.
4) pick appropriate C or D subgroup.
