Which one of the following statements concerning the electric dipole moment is false?
1 answer:
Answer:
A.The dipole moment is a scalar quantity.
Explanation:
We know that
Dipole moment :It measure the polarity of chemical bond in a molecule .
The electric dipole moment is equal to product of any charge (positive or negative ) and the distance between the two charges.
Mathematical representation:
Where =Dipole moment
q=Charge on atom or particle
d=Distance between two charged particles
It helps to find out the molecule is polar or non- polar.
When the dipole moment is zero then the molecule is non-polar.
Dipole moment is a vector quantity.
The direction of dipole moment from negative charge to positive.
When unit of charge is C and unit of distance is m.
Then, unit of dipole moment=C-m
Hence, option A is false.

Explanation:
We must remember the principle of conservation of energy which tells us that energy is transformed from one way to another. For this case, the initial kinetic energy is transformed into useful work that is equal to the product of force by distance.
