A diatomic molecule has dipole moment ...

A diatomic molecule has dipole moment of `1.2 D`. If the bond distance is `1 Å` what parcentage of covalent in the molecule is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
25

`mu = e xx d`
`therefore e = mu/d = (1.2 D)/(1.0 A) = (1.2 xx 10^(-18))/(1.0 xx 10^(-8)) cm`
`=1.2 xx 10^(-10)` esu
Percentage of electronic charge
`=(1.2 xx 10^(-10))/(4.8 xx 10^(-10)) esu xx 100 = 25%`
