- Molecule options are presented with structural diagrams of organic compounds. 
  - a) \[O-C\] structure
  - b) \[OH\] structure
  - c) Ring structure with \[OH\]
  - d) Cyclic structure

### Question 9
**A strong signal at 1700 cm⁻¹ in an IR spectrum indicates the presence of a(n):**

A) Alcohol  
B) Ether  
C) Carbonyl  
D) Amine  

### Question 10
**Deduce the structure of an unknown compound with molecular formula C₄H₈O using the following information given by its infrared spectrum:**

- Intensity and Frequency (cm⁻¹):
  - m at 3300
  - m at 2900
  - m at 2800
  - m at 1650
  - m at 1450
  - m at 1375
