(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The conversion of the given infrared wavelength to ${\text{cm}}^{-1}$.

Interpretation: The given infrared wavelength to ${\text{cm}}^{-1}$ is to be converted.

Concept introduction: The wavenumber is defined as the number of cycles in a centimetre and is the reciprocal of wavelength. It is proportional to the frequency and its unit is ${\text{cm}}^{-1}$. The formula for calculating the wavenumber is as follows,

$\overline{\nu }\left({\text{cm}}^{-1}\right)=\frac{1}{\lambda \left(\text{cm}\right)}=\frac{10000\text{μm}/\text{cm}}{\lambda \left(\text{μm}\right)}$
