Russell S. Drago bridges the gap between abstract quantum mechanics and practical laboratory application. His book teaches you how to look at experimental data and translate it into a concrete understanding of molecular structure, bonding, and electronic distribution. Key Topics Covered in the Book
Symmetry forms the backbone of molecular orbital theory and spectroscopy. Drago introduces molecular symmetry to predict optical activity and vibrational modes. Define molecular point groups. Construct character tables for complex geometries. Predict irreducible representations for molecular bonds. Apply selection rules to infrared and Raman spectroscopy. 2. Vibrational Spectroscopy (IR and Raman) Drago bridges the gap between abstract quantum mechanics
