Match each sampling technique with its characteristic drawback.

List I

A. Nujol mull

B. Potassium bromide pellet

C. Attenuated total reflectance

List II

P. Its own carbon-hydrogen bands

Q. A spurious water band

R. Low sensitivity from a short path

Select the correct match.

  • A.A-Q, B-P, C-R
  • B.A-R, B-Q, C-P
  • C.A-P, B-R, C-Q
  • D.A-P, B-Q, C-R

Answer: D

The pairing is A-P, B-Q, C-R. Each technique introduces an artefact of its own, and knowing which artefact to expect is what prevents it being reported as a structural feature. That every preparation method leaves its own signature on the spectrum is a general truth of the technique, and the choice between them is partly a choice of which artefact is easiest to live with.
