CH 1 vocab Flashcards
the study of the interaction of energy with matter
spectroscopy
NMR?
nuclear magnetic resonance
a graph that shows the characteristic energy absorption frequencies and intensities for a sample of a magnetic field
The number of signals in the spectrum tells us what?
how many different proton environments there are in a molecule
the position of the signals in the spectrum along the x-axis tells us what?
about the magnetic environment of each set of protons arising largely from the electron density in their environment
the area under the signal tells us about what?
how many protons there are in the set being measured
the multiplicity(or splitting pattern) of each signal tells us about
the number of protons on atoms adjacent to the ones whose signal is being measured
the position of a signal along the x-axis of an NMR spectrum is called its
chemical shift
