25. Explanation
ï Bond Vibration The energy of the
infrared light can interact with the
resonant vibrational frequency of the
bond Since different bonds have
different energies, they require
different energy to cause vibration.
26.
27. ï Intensity of Absorbance
ï Intensity of light absorbed by a
molecule is related to the dipole of the
bond
ï The greater the dipole, the greater the
absorbance intensity C-O bond
stretches are therefore more intense
than C-C stretches
