1.

s.Calculate electric dipole moment of an electron and a proton 4.30 nm apart. 2

Answer»

Magnitude of charge of electron and proton q = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

Distance between electron and proton 2a = 4 . 3 nm = 4.3 x 10⁻⁹ m

Electric dipole moment = q x 2a = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ X 4.3 x 10⁻⁹ = 6.88 x 10⁻²⁸ cm

p =q*dSo, for this one, being e=1.6E-19 C the elementary chargep = 1.6E-19 * 4.30E-9p = 6.88E-28 C.m

Also, p is a vector, so you need its orientation, which is from the electron to the proton.
