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 thepolarity 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 asubstance, etc. Q. mu of the AX_(4) type of molecule is zero. The geometry of it can be :
