A dipole is defined as:
A:the attraction between two molecules as a result of charge being unequally distributed in the molecule
B:a separation of charge over some distance

C: the localization of electrons in close proximity, resulting in a net negative charge on the molecule

C: the localization of electrons in close proximity, resulting in a net negative charge on the molecule

chmvijay · Answer

a separation of charge over some distance
Dipole = Q1.Q2  / d
where q1 and q2 are charges and d is distance between them

anonymous · Answer

really lol

chmvijay · Answer

why LOL

anonymous · Answer

becouse i just finished telling u i stink in chem and u give me this huge equation ....

chmvijay · Answer

haaa haaa haaaa LOL:) but its chemistry

anonymous · Answer

ahhhhhh just help me :( please lol

chmvijay · Answer

its A

frostbite · Answer

Perhaps it is better explained with an example?

anonymous · Answer

lol thankx guys :)

frostbite · Answer

Gonnna make an example anyway... I got loads of time:
@chmvijay is right and to illustrate lets look at two water molecules which I hope you know are polar:
|dw:1368204199426:dw|
In the drawing above we see water with two hydrogen atoms and a oxygen. Oxygen is highly electronegative and also contain a extra pair of electrons. Because of oxygen being highly electronegative it like to pull so much in the hydrogen atoms as it can and hydrogen therefor become slightly positive we can indicate it the following way:

Now we know from magnetism that + like - and - like + so if we have two molecules of water they are going to place them self like this:
