B. C=O
C. C-O
D. C-C
IR Stretching:
The IR stretching seen in a substance's spectrum is dependent on the position of the IR absorption band. Stronger bonds require more energy to stretch them, and heavier atoms usually vibrate at lower frequencies. So depending on the type of vibration and the atoms attached, there will be a unique pattern to the IR stretches in the IR spectrum.
