Answer:
The following factors can be considered as the factors governing the position of an IR absorption peak.
* Strength of the bond
* Masses of the atoms involved in the bond
* The type of vibration being observed
Explanation:
Note that , when there is a quantum transition between two energy level, resulting in a situation where the band positions are to be expressed in terms of energy unit, it is known to cause IR absorption.
A molecule is said to IR active, when there is a change in dipole moment, due to the vibration which occurs when IR radiation is absorbed.
