Order of electromagnetic radiation?
A
(highest frequency) gamma rays, x rays, UV, Visual, IR, microwave, FM, AM, long radio waves (longest wavelength)
2
Q
What is IR spectroscopy?
A
best at identifying functional groups but not how the atoms are connected
3
Q
IR spec does what to bonds?
A
to strech and bend, different bonds react differently to IR radiation

a dipole present
polar covalent bonds are what show up
