Question

difference between ion and dipole

Answer 1

Hello Dear !
______________________________________________________________
Ions are negatively charged or positively charged atoms or particles 
But  A dipole is a set of two poles positive and negative 
Take an example in H2O 
when bond formation takes place O got partial negative charge and 
H got partial positive charge their moment is called dipole moment

Answer 2

ION is formed when neutral atom looses or gains electron.
eg: Na+ ,k+ etc

DIOPLE means equal and opposite charges
separated by small distance
A neutral atom may be a dipole if its elctrons
and are displaced in such a way that negative
charges go to one side of atom and positive
charges go to other side of atom

The MAIN difference is that neutral atom can
never be the ion but neutral atom can be a
dipole
eg helium at high temperature
