<p>The mathematical apparatus of group theory is a means of exploring and exploiting physical and algebraic structure in physical and chemical probΒ lems. The existence of structure in the physical processes leads to structure in the solutions. For group theory to be useful this structure need not b
<P>As the structure and behavior of molecules and crystals depend on their different symmetries, group theory becomes an essential tool in many important areas of chemistry. It is a quite powerful theoretical tool to predict many basic as well as some characteristic properties of molecules. Whereas
