Looking at the character table for C_3v point group, we see that z² quadratic function has A₁ symmetry. What does this tell us? A) The z-axis has the highest group order. B) The rotation around z axis is a symmetrical operation. C) The d_z2 atomic orbital remains unchanged under all symmetry operations of this group.
