1) The functional groups in an organic compound can frequently be deduced from its infrared absorption spectrum. A hydrocarbon exhibits no bands above 3000 but gives weak absorption at 2200 cm-1. Relative absorption intensity: (s)=strong, (m)=medium, (w)=weak. What functional class(es) does the compound belong to? List only classes for which evidence is given here. Attach no significance to evidence not cited explicitly. Do not over-interpret exact absorption band positions. None of your inferences should depend on small differences like 10...

Functional Group Identification: What are the functional groups (alkanes, alkenes, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, phenol)? how is reaction with Br2: (and how this can be used to test for alkanes, alkenes with and without light) Explain Ceric nitrate test (tests for alcohol functional group): turns red in presence of hydroxyl, turns green-brown in presence of phenol. FeCl3 test: phenols turn red-purple 2,4-DNP (tests for aldehydes and ketones): yellow-red = carbonyl present, but it does not help you decide between the aldehyde...
