The concept of symmetry and group theory are important in chemistry to study the structure of molecules. The measurement of crystal structures, infra– red spectra, ultra–violet spectra, dipole moments and optical activities, all these are properties which depend on molecular symmetry. The term symmetry is synonymous to beauty. The nature has made most of its creation symmetrical i.e., the sun planets animals and plants. symmetry is present in geometrical figures, crystalline solids and molecule.
