Q

What is the intensity (integration value) of each signal proportional to in the H (proton) NMR spectrum?

A

The intensity (integration value) of each signal is proportional to the number of equivalent H atoms it represents.

3:1:2

(see page 1 in the chemrevise revision guide)

20
Q

Why are samples dissolved in solvents without any 1H atoms for the H NMR? Give two examples of these solvents.

A

This means that in the H NMR the solvent will not give any peaks.
CCL4
CDCl3

21
Q

Why is a small amount of TMS (tetramethylsilane) added to the sample in both C13 and H NMR spectroscopy?

A

To calibrate the sprectrum.

TMS is used because:

  • its signal is away from all the others
  • it only gives one signal
  • it is non-toxic
  • it is inert
  • it has a low boiling point and so can be removed from sample easily
22
Q

What does the squiggle (that kinda looks like partial charge symbol but I can write it on here) mean? (see page 2 in the chemrevise revision guide for the symbol)

A

It is a measure in parts per million (ppm) is a relative scale of how far the frequency of the proton signal has shifted away from that for TMS.

23
Q

Draw the displayed formula for tetramethylsilane.

A
