This is part of the HSC Chemistry course under the topic of Analysis of Organic Substances. In this post, we investigate the processes used to analyse the structure of simple organic compounds addressed in the course, including but not limited to proton and carbon-13 NMR, mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy
Proton and Carbon-13 NMR
A video about Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), the process used to analyse the structure of simple organic compounds,
Mass Spectrometry
A Khan Academy video about Mass Spectrometry, the process used to analyse the structure of simple organic compounds by determining the relative abundances of ions.
Infrared Spectroscopy
A video about Infrared Spectroscopy, the process used to analyse the structure of simple organic compounds by measuring the absorbance of infrared radiation.
A video with worked example practice problems of Infrared Spectroscopy.
