    of this experiment was to investigate the relationship between mass‚ frequency‚ bond strength. Using the Infrared Spectroscopy‚computer simulations‚ and spring stiffness provided with evidence that validated the experiment. The first set of test focused on how the mass of certain molecules affect vibrational frequency. Table A1. shows two different masses with two different frequency. A spring stiffness of 85 g/cm was used with a mass of 430.31g showing a frequency of 60(s/1) . Using the same spring
