Answer:
A dipole moment is a quantity that describes two opposite charges separated by a distance. It is a quantity that we can measure for a molecule in the lab and thereby determine the size of the partial charges on the molecule (if we know the bond length). By definition the dipole moment, μ, is the product of the magnitude of the separated charge and the distance of the separation:
where q is the magnitude of the separated charge and r is the distance between them.
hope this will help u:)
