Abstract

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
