Notes
- The 3N-6 rule gives us an expected 6 vibrations (3 × 4 - 6 = 6).
- There are only 4 peaks on the IR spectrum because two of the vibrational modes have negligible change in dipole moment, so they are not visible.
- The asymmetric N-F stretching vibration is indexed as vibrational mode 3.
- The highest energy mode is the N=N stretching vibration.
