16. The peak with the greatest m/z value for alcohols is given by m/z M-18, where M represents
the molecular weight of the alcohols. The number 18 in "M-18" means that the radical cation
loses a (an)
molecule.

- True or False 1. A strong signal in infrared spectroscopy indicates that a molecule matches the emitted electromagnetic radiation and reports a high transmittance. 2. Among all the possible vibrational modes, symmetric stretching will be IR inactive. 3.
