Question #b04e0

Answer 1

Dipole moment is a vector quantity. A 'Vector' is a Physical quantity which has both Magnitude as well as Direction. For eg. Force is a vector quantity.

Explanation:

Dipole Moment is a measure of polarity of covalent bond.
Covalent bonds become polarised due to electronegativity difference between atoms in which covalent bond is present.
`vec μ`= q x `vecd` [ "`vec`" this is the symbol of vector quantity]

μ is the Dipole Moment

q is the charge

d is the separation between the charges
