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.
A set of videos on how to find point groups, and solve some group theory problems in inorganic chemistry all in one convenient place.
