Definitions:

Mass Spectrum

A graph or chart that displays the distribution of ions by mass in a sample, providing information about the molecular weight and structure of compounds.

Cyclopentanol

A cyclic alcohol with the formula C5H9OH, characterized by a five-membered ring structure with an attached hydroxyl group.

Peak

The highest point or maximum value of a graph, often used in reference to spectra in analytical chemistry indicating a specific property.

C=C Stretching Frequency

Refers to the frequency at which the carbon-carbon double bonds in a molecule vibrate, typically observed in infrared spectroscopy.
