Question

Relation between bond angle and dipole moment...

Answer 1

Answer:

Bond angle: It is defined as the angle between the orbitals containing bonding electron pairs around the central atom in a molecule.

Dipole moment: The polarity of a molecule is expressed in terms of dipole moment. It is defined as the product of the magnitude of charge at one end and distance between the charges.

                       ie, Dipole=Charge×Distance between the charges

Answer 2

Answer:

p * cos Ф = q d cos Ф.

Explanation:

Each of the chemical bonds will have a dipole moment associate with it. Dipole moment is the product of distance d between the two atoms and charge q on them. ... If the angle of a bond is more, then its contribution to the vector sum will be less as the component value of the bond is p * cos Ф = q d cos Ф.
