Polar covalent molecules exhibit dipole moment. Dipole moment is equal to the product of charge separation , q and the bond length d for the bond. Unit of dipole moment is debye. One debye is equal to 10^(-18) esu cm. Dipole moments is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction. Hence, dipole moment of a molecule depends upon the relative orientation of the bond dipoles, but not on the polarity of bonds alone. A symmetrical structure shows zero dipole moment. Thus, dipole moment helps to predict the geometry of a molecules. Dipole moment values can be distinguish between cis- and trans- isomers, ortho, meta and pare-forms of a substance, etc. Q. Arrange the following compounds in increasing order of dipole moments, toluene (I), o-dichlorobenzene (II), m-dichlorobenzene (III) and p-dichlorobenzene (IV) :
