How can you distinguish aldehydes, ketones, and carboxylic acids from each other using IR spectra? Explain using specific examples.
2. According to the Beer-Lambert law absorbance is proportional
to concentration at each wavelength. In principle, one could
choose any wavelength for quantitative estimations of
concentration. However, we generally select the wavelength of
maximum absorbance for a given sample and use it in our
absorbance measurements. Especially, one should avoid the
steep portions of the spectrum. Why?
3. Which concentration range
a dilute or a concentrated one - is
chosen for accurate determinations of unknown concentrations?
A student has acquired an IR spectra of an unknown six-carbon molecule and has determined that it is either 2-hexyne, 1-
hexyne, or 1-hexene. How can the student use their knowledge of IR spectroscopy to determine the identity of the molecule? In
your answer, clearly specify what regions of the IR spectrum the student should look at and what bonds are responsible for the
absorption bands you indicate.
