Answer:

An electric dipole is a pair of equal and opposite point-charges placed at a short distance apart.

Explanation:

Several molecules as HCL, H2O and many more are electric dipoles. We also know that each molecule has two or more atoms. Each atom has positively-charged nucleus and negatively-charged electrons.

In an atom, the centre of the positive charges and the centre of the negatively charges coincide with each other.

Hence, the atom is not a dipole.
