Error in IR spectra
« on: October 31, 2015, 04:40:47 PM »
Hi,
Could someone explain how I would obtain a value for the error associated with the position of an observed band on an IR spectra?

What do you mean "error associated with the position for an observed band"? Do you mean the instrument's error? Virtually none, if it's properly calibrated.
