Abstract
A 13C NMR experiment is proposed in which spin–lattice relaxation time T1 is determined for carbon atoms in a sample of liquid n-hexanol. The effective correlation times for rotational reorientation are calculated to determine the relative mobility of the carbon chain units.
Supplement
Instructions for students and notes for the instructor are available.
