AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on understanding why a specific proton signal appears as a multiplet in Proton NMR. The user is confused about the concept of a multiplet and seeks clarification on the signal from protons in the molecule. They mention having two "d" protons and one "b" proton, which should theoretically result in a doublet of triplets or a triplet of doublets. Additionally, there is a question raised about why another signal, referred to as "D," is not classified as a multiplet. The conversation highlights the complexities of interpreting NMR signals in relation to proton environments.

The Attempt at a Solution



I cannot understand what makes C a multiplet. I suppose I am confused about the concept of a multiplet in general.

Sorry, no picture.
 
sorry. what about now?

Two d protons and single b proton. Together they should yield doublet of triplets (or triplet of doublets).

why is D not a multiplet ?
 

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
