摘要:

介绍了数学软件Mathematica在高等院校化学课程中群论部分教学的应用。借助Mathematica强大的数学计算和可视化功能,降低了群论理论教学难度,使群论教学内容更加生动。通过形象地展示分子的对称元素以及对称操作,帮助学生更好地理解与掌握分子的对称性以及对称操作,提升学生对群论课程的学习兴趣,进而提升教学质量。

关键词: Mathematica, 群论, 对称性, 变换矩阵

Abstract:

This paper introduces the application of Mathematica in the teaching of group theory in chemistry courses of colleges and universities. With the powerful mathematical calculation and visualization function of Mathematica, the teaching difficulty of group theory is reduced and the teaching content of group theory is more vivid. It can help students better understand and master molecular symmetry and symmetry operation by vividly displaying symmetrical elements and symmetry operation of molecules, improve students' interest in studying group theory courses, and then improve the quality of teaching.

Key words: Mathematica, Group theory, Symmetry, Transformation matrix
