Question

IfH - X bond having a bond length of 1.03 A
should show, 60% ionic character the observe
dipole moment must be
3) 2 96 D 43 05 D​

Answer 1

Explanation:

ANSWER

The percent ionic character =

Calculated dipole moment (assuming 100% ionic bond)

Observed dipole moment

× 100.

So, dipole moment (assuming 100% ionic bond) =e×d=4.8×10

−10

×1.275×10

−8

=6.12×10

−18

.

So, percent ionic character =(1.03/6.12)×100≈17 %
