Chapter 9: Chemical Bonding I:The Lewis Model
Given information
Measured dipole moment of HF is
Measured dipole moment of HCl is
Percent ionic character of HF =
percent ionic character of HCl =
Charge on electron =
Step-by-step explanation
Calculating dipole moment
The dipole moment = Charge Bond length
ionic character =
The dipole moment of HCl if the electron was completely transferred =
=
=
The dipole moment of HF if electron was completely transferred =
=
=
