A) The bond between H and the sp³-hybridized C in these functional groups vibrates in this energy range. B) Each of these functional groups has at least two resonance structures, and the different vibrations of the resonance structures give off energy in this region. C) The bond between O and the sp²-hybridized C in these functional groups vibrates at a frequency in this energy range. D) Light at this wavenumber causes the average C to O bond length to increase which causes more of this light to be transmitted. E) An electron in the bond of these functional groups gets excited to the * orbital.arrow_forward1. An aliphatic ketone absorbs at 1,715 cm-1.
