With the use of the infrared spectroscopy device and the infrared correlation chart, the functional groups within cyclohexane and the unknown compound were identified. Within the infrared spectroscopy graph analysis of cyclohexane, there were two peaks of interest. These two peaks were both identified as alkane (stretch) with a C-H vibration and sp^3 hybridization and intensity of medium/strong. The wavenumber of 2850.66 and appropriately 2940 allowed me to infer that it was alkane and the value below 3000 allowed me to determine that it was sp^3 hybridized. There was an additional peak that was visibly noticeable and obtained a wavelength of 1451.19, however it was disregarded because it was a constituent of the compounds unique fingerprint
