Q: Deformation vibrations in IR spectroscopy is called as-
  • A. Bending vibrations
  • B. Symmetric vibrations
  • C. Asymmetric vibrations
  • D. Stretching vibrations
Correct Answer: Option A - The bending vibrations are called as deformation vibrations. In this type of vibrations a change in bond angle occurs between bonds with a common atom, as there is a movement of group of atoms with respect of the remainder of the molecule without movement of the atoms in the group with respect to one another.
