  1. High sensitivity to moisture
  2. Inability to analyze organic compounds
  3. Requires large sample sizes
  4. Only works at low temperatures

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a limitation of FTIR spectroscopy?
  • Step 1: Understand what FTIR spectroscopy is. It is a technique used to identify materials by measuring how they absorb infrared light.
  • Step 2: Recognize that FTIR spectroscopy can be affected by moisture in the environment.
  • Step 3: Realize that moisture can interfere with the results of the analysis, making it difficult to get accurate readings.
  • Step 4: Conclude that the high sensitivity to moisture is a limitation of FTIR spectroscopy.
