yes and it should have 9 IR active vibrations
The chemical formula for chloroform is CHCl3.
Formula: CHCl3
The bond angles in a molecule of CHCl3 are approximately 109.5 degrees.
It is known as trichloromethane or, more commonly, chloroform.
CHCl3 is neither an acid nor a base. It is a neutral compound commonly known as chloroform.
An IR Active stretch simply means that the vibrations of the molecule result in an overall dipole of the molecule. If a stretch has a dipole, it is IR active. If a stretch does not have a dipole. then it is IR Inactive.
In order for a molecule to be IR active, the vibration must produce an oscillating dipole. This usually means that the bond (or bonds) in question have are polar to begin with so that they have a dipole. Therefore symmetrical molecules like O2 and N2 are not IR active, but molecules like H2O with polar bonds are IR active.
Potassium bromide (KBr) is not IR active in the traditional sense because it does not have strong molecular vibrations that can be detected in the infrared spectrum. KBr is often used as a transparent matrix for IR spectroscopy because it effectively transmits infrared light. However, any compounds or ions that are mixed with KBr for analysis can be IR active, depending on their specific functional groups and molecular structure.
The chemical formula for chloroform is CHCl3.
Formula: CHCl3
In infrared (IR) spectroscopy, the selection rule states that a molecular vibration is active in the IR spectrum only if it results in a change in the dipole moment of the molecule. This means that symmetrical vibrations that do not alter the dipole moment are typically not IR-active. Therefore, only those vibrations that produce a measurable change in dipole moment during the molecular motion will be detected in an IR spectrum.
Absorption of energy from IR radiation can only occur when the wavelength of radiation and the wavelength of the bond vibration match. If a molecule has symmetry...for example no dipole, we say it is IR inactive. CO2 has no dipole....this would be an IR inactive gas...Cl2 as well. A gas that has a dipole would be IR active. Propene would be a nice example of an IR active gas.It possesses a dipole. One would see a signal around 1650.A:CO2 has no permanent dipole. However, when CO2 undergoes a bending vibration, its dipole moment changes from zero to some non-zero value. This vibration produces a change in dipole moment and is therefore IR active.
