Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The diagram for three different vibrational modes of water is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

A molecule is made up of atoms that are bonded together by covalent bonds. These bonds have a to and fro movement. Vibrational spectroscopy is observed due to vibration in a molecule. The molecule possessing vibrational spectrum undergoes a change in its dipole moment for a particular mode of vibration.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The different vibrations are to be classified as stretching or bending vibrations.
