The electric dipole moment of an HCl ato...

The electric dipole moment of an HCl atom is `3.4 xx 10^(-30)` Cm. The charges on both atoms are unlike and of same magnitude. Magnitude of this charge is ........The distance between the charges is 1 A.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

If the charges on the two atoms are q,-q,
`q(1.0xx10(-10)m) = 3.4 xx 10(-30)` cm
or, ` q = 3.4 xx 10 (-20) C
. Note that this is less then the charge of a proton. Can
you explain, how such a charge can appear on an atom?
