Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The correct place to click on any of the double peak showing between 2500 and 3000
cm^(-1) on the uploaded question

Step-by-step explanation:

The group which is being highlighted is an Aldehyde functional group denoted by this structure (
=C-H)

This groups stretch on the infrared spectrometer gives two medium intensities peaks

Its stretch comes at 2820 - 2850
cm^(-1) peak 1

and at 2720 - 2750
cm^(-1) peak 2

So the correct click would be on any of the two peaks between 2500 - 3000
cm^(-1) region
