Answer :
The SI unit of dipole moment is Coulomb-metre and it is a vector quantity.
Explanation :
The electric dipole moment between two charges is the product of one of the charges and the distance between them.
The electric dipole moment is a vector quantity and the direction of it is from negative to positive.
SI unit of dipole moment is Coulamb-metre.
Hence, the correct answer is vector quantity and the unit is Coulamb-metre.
