Answer:
No, IR should not soely be used to identify molecules
Explanation:
IR is a method that identifies the functional groups in a molecule by deducing the frequency of stretching and vibration of bonds. Each peculiar type of bond has a frequency for the vibration of each bond represented on the IR spectrum.
However, one method is never enough to identify a compound. A combination of methods must always be used to clear up ambiguities arising from overlapping IR frequencies. Also, interpretation of the nuanced peaks of the fingerprint region in IR spectra is quite challenging and only gives a fair idea of the functional groups present in the compound.
Therefore other methods such as NMR, UV-VISIBLE etc should also be involved in the identification of compounds.

Answer:
c.boron-11
Explanation:
The atomic mass of boron is 10.81 u.
And 10.81 u is a lot closer to 11u than it is to 10u, so there must be more of boron-11.
To convince you fully, we can also do a simple calculation to find the exact proportion of boron-11 using the following formula:
(10u)(x)+(11u)(1−x)100%=10.81u
Where u is the unit for atomic mass and x is the proportion of boron-10 out of the total boron abundance which is 100%.
Solving for x we get:
11u−ux=10.81u
0.19u=ux
x=0.19
1−x=0.81
And thus the abundance of boron-11 is roughly 81%.
