write the significance /application of dipole movement
Answers
here is your answer mate :))))) hope it helps and plss mark as brainlist answer if it satisfies you
A dipole moment is a measurement of the separation of two opposite electrical charges. Dipole moments are a vector quantity. The magnitude is equal to the charge multiplied by the distance between the charges and the direction is from negative charge to positive charge.
Significance of the Dipole Moment
In chemistry, dipole moments are applied to the distribution of electrons between two bonded atoms. The existence of a dipole moment is the difference between polar and nonpolar bonds. Molecules with a net dipole moment are polar molecules. If the net dipole moment is zero or very, very small, the bond and molecule are considered to be nonpolar. Atoms that have similar electronegativity values tend to form chemical bonds with a very small dipole moment.
Answer :
(1). In predicting the nature of the molecules.
(2). Molecules with specific dipole moments are polar in nature and those of zero dipole moments are non-polar in nature.
(3). In the determination of shapes of molecules.
(4). In calculating the percentage ionic character.
