22. ABSORTIONABSORTION CHEMICAL SHIFT Electrons around the nucleus shield it from the applied magnetic field. Different radio-frequencies are aborbed depending on the environment of the proton. CHEMICAL SHIFT is a measure of the magnetic field experienced by protons in different environments. CHEMICAL SHIFT is measured in ppm relative to TMS, Si(CH 3 ) 4 CHEMICAL SHIFT tells us about the types of protons present

24. ABSORTIONABSORTION CHEMICAL SHIFT ABSORPTIONS The area under each peak is directly proportional to the number of protons responsible for the absorption These areas are most often presented as integration traces on the spectrum
