How could IR spectroscopy be used to distinguish between the following compounds?

a ketone and an aldehyde
An aldehyde would show absorption bands at 2820 – 2720 cm¬1. A ketone would not have these absorption bands.
O A ketone would show absorption bands at 1250 – 1050 cm-1. An aldehyde would not have these absorption bands.
O A ketone would show absorption bands at 3300 – 2500 cm-1. An aldehyde would not have these absorption bands.
An aldehyde would show absorption bands at 1780 – 1650 cm-1. A ketone would not have these absorption bands.

Part B
a cyclic ketone and an open-chain ketone
O An open-chain ketone would have a methyl substituent and therefore an absorption band at 1385 – 1365 cm¬1 that a cyclic ketone would not have.
An open-chain ketone would have a methyl substituent and therefore an absorption band at 1650 – 1550 cm-1 that a cyclic ketone would not have.
An open-chain ketone would have a methyl substituent and therefore an absorption band at 2960 – 2850 cm-1 that a cyclic ketone would not have.
An open-chain ketone would have a methyl substituent and therefore an absorption band at 3300 – 2700 cm-1 that a cyclic ketone would not have.

benzene and cyclohexene
Benzene would show an sp3 C - H stretch slightly to the right of 2500 cm-1. Cyclohexene would not show an absorption band in this region.
Cyclohexene would show an sp C– H stretch slightly to the right of 2500 cm-1. Benzene would not show an absorption band in this region.
Benzene would show an sp3 C –H stretch slightly to the right of 3000 cm-1. Cyclohexene would not show an absorption band in this region.
O Cyclohexene would show an sp3 C- H stretch slightly to the right of 3000 cm-1. Benzene would not show an absorption band in this region.
