The study of diple moment of a molecule is useful to explain the shape of a molecule and also to predict a The net dipole moment of a polyatomic molecule is the resltant of the different bond moments present in that molecule . The values are generalluy expressed in Debye or in the S.I. units in terms of Coulomb meter (C m) A covalent molecule , X-Y is found to have a dipole moment of1.5 xx10^(-29) C m and a bond length of 150 pm . The per cent ionic character of the bond will be |

Answer» `50%` ` = 2.4 xx 10^(-29) `C m `mu_("calculated")=1.5 xx10^(-29) C m` `therefore % `ionic CHARACTER`=(1.5 xx10^(-29) ) / (2.4xx 10^(-29)) XX100 = 62.5%` |
