On the Character and Conjugacy Classes of C3v Point Group Using Block Diagonal Matrix

David Terna Achaku, Moses Anayo Mbah, Peter Vanenchii Ayoo

Abstract: Using the transformation of the symmetry elements of point groups, we constructed their matrix representation, applying the orthogonality theorem, we reduced the blocked diagonal matrix to its irreducible form to get the character table. The character table thus showed the three conjugacy classes.
