(a)
To determine: The approximate frequencies for distinctive peaks in the IR spectrum to state whether the product was pure cyclohexene, pure cyclohexanol or a mixture of cyclohexene and cyclohexanol.
Interpretation: The approximate frequencies for distinctive peaks in the IR spectrum to state whether the product was pure cyclohexene, pure cyclohexanol or a mixture of cyclohexene and cyclohexanol are to be explained.
Concept introduction: An IR spectrum is a graph for the energy absorbed by a molecule as a function of the frequency or
(b)
To determine: The reason as to why mass spectrometry might not be a reasonable way to distinguish cyclohexene from cyclohexanol.
Interpretation: The reason as to why mass spectrometry might not be a reasonable way to distinguish cyclohexene from cyclohexanol is to be explained.
Concept introduction: Mass spectroscopy provides a reliable molecular weight for an unknown compound and also gives us the information about the molecular formula as well.
Fragmentation gives the resonance stabilized cations whenever possible. Loss of a small molecule is usually indicated by a fragment peak having an even mass number corresponding to loss of an even mass number.
