Concept explainers
(a)
To determine: The compounds in the stockroom manager’s bottle and the compound in the student’s test tube.
Interpretation: The compounds in the stockroom manager’s bottle and the compound in the student’s test tube are to be identified.
Concept introduction: The substance reacts with infrared radiations to produce infrared spectrum. IR spectroscopy aids in identification of chemicals especially
(b)
To determine: The discrepancy between the stockroom manager’s bottle and the student’s test tube.
Interpretation: The discrepancy between the stockroom manager’s bottle and the student’s test tube is to be explained.
Concept introduction: The substance reacts with infrared radiations to produce infrared spectrum. IR spectroscopy aids in identification of chemicals especially functional groups of substances. Infrared region has three parts named as near, mid and far infrared. Every functional group gets absorbed at a specific value to give peak.
(c)
To determine: The suggestion to avoid misunderstanding in the future.
Interpretation: The suggestion to avoid misunderstanding in the future is to be given.
