Answer

Step by step solution

01

IR spectroscopy

IR spectroscopy helps detect the functional groups present in the given organic compound. Observe closely the peaks that are obtained in the IR spectrum. Each functional group has a characteristic absorption in IR spectroscopy.

02

Subpart (a)

If the given spectrum is observed, the peaks are observed at represents the 1660 cm-1 stretch.

A medium peak at3360 cm-1-3200 cm-1 indicates the N-H stretch.

The peaks betweenrole="math" localid="1660720065115" 3000 cm-1-2840 cm-1 indicates the presence of C-H stretch.

Hence, the peaks role="math" localid="1660720014870" 1600 cm-1above are N-H stretch, C-H stretch, and C=O stretch.

03

Subpart (b)

If the given spectrum is observed, a broad peak is observed between 3300 cm-1-2500 cm-1, representing the O-H stretch. The peaks between 3000 cm-1-2840 cm-1indicates the presence of C-H stretch.

The peak at 31711cm-1indicates the in carboxylic acid.

Thus, the peaks above1600cm-1 are O-H stretch, C-H stretch, and C=O stretch.

04

 Step 4: Subpart (c)

If the given spectrum is observed, a broad peak is observed between3500 cm-1-3300 cm-1 , representing the O-H stretch. The peaks between3000 cm-1-2840 cm-1 indicates the presence of C-H stretch.

Thus, the peaks above are O-H stretch, and C-H stretch.
