Question

What are the applications of dipole moment​

Answer 1

Answer:

Applications of dipole moment:

(i) Ionic character can be calculated using the value of dipole moment.

% of ionic character =

=100* (Experimental value of dipole moment/Theoretical value of 100% ionized molecule)

(ii) Geometry of the molecule can be predicted using the dipole moment.

(iii) Dipole moment is helpful in predicting nature of the molecule. Weather it is polar or non-polar in nature.
