    The dipole moment of HBr is \[2.60\times {{10}^{-30}}cm\]and the interatomic spacing is \[1.41\,\overset{o}{\mathop{A}}\,\]. What is the per cent ionic character of \[HBr\]?

    A)  50 %    

    B)  11.5 %  

    C)  4.01 %  

    D)  1.19 %

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Theoretical value of dipole moment of 100% ionic character \[=e\,\,\,\times d\]                 \[=(1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}C)\,\,(1.4\times {{10}^{-10}}m)\]                 \[=2.26\times {{10}^{-29}}\,Cm\] Observed value of dipole moment                 \[=2.60\times {{10}^{-30}}Cm\] \[\therefore \] Per cent ionic character                 \[=\frac{observed\text{ }value}{theoretical\text{ }value}\times 100\]                 \[=\frac{2.60\times {{10}^{-30}}}{2.26\times {{10}^{-29}}}\times 100\] = 11.5%
