which has highest dipole moment in cabonic halide?
Answers
Answer:
The intermolecular forces have important contribution in helping us to understand the interaction between atoms in same or different kind of molecules. The interaction can involve polar or non polar molecules and ions. There are three common intermolecular forces and this module will focus more in-depth the interaction involving polar molecules and interaction between polar molecules and ions.
Introduction
Dipole moment (μ
) is the measure of net molecular polarity, which is the magnitude of the charge Q at either end of the molecular dipole times the distance r
between the charges.
μ=Q×r(1)
Dipole moments tell us about the charge separation in a molecule. The larger the difference in electronegativities of bonded atoms, the larger the dipole moment. For example, NaCl has the highest dipole moment because it has an ionic bond (i.e. highest charge separation).
