Question
### NMR Signal Analysis of Three Compounds

#### Compounds Analyzed

- **Compound A:** CH₃COCH₂CH₂CH₃
- **Compound B:** CH₃CH₂CH₂COCH₃
- **Compound C:** CH₃CH₂COCH₂CH₃

#### Questions for Analysis

**(a) True/False, all three compounds have the same number of ¹H NMR signals?**  
______

**(b) Which compound has the furthest downfield, three hydrogen singlet, (3H, singlet)?**  
______

**(c) Which compound lacks a two hydrogen triplet, (2H, triplet)?**  
______

**(d) Which compound has two unique signals that are both three hydrogen triplets, (3H, triplet)?**  
______

##### Explanation of Terms:

- **¹H NMR (Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance):** An analytical chemistry technique used to determine the structure of organic compounds by observing the behavior of hydrogen atoms in a magnetic field.
- **Downfield:** Refers to a signal shift to a lower magnetic field (higher chemical shift, usually measured in ppm (parts per million)).
- **Singlet:** A signal with no splitting, indicating the hydrogen environment has no adjacent hydrogen atoms.
- **Triplet:** A signal split into three peaks, indicating the hydrogen environment has two adjacent hydrogen atoms.

This educational resource provides questions to test students' understanding of proton NMR signals in different organic compounds.
