Dipole Moment Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the dipole moment.
u = Q * r
- u is the dipole moment (Debye)
- Q is the charge (C)
- r is the distance (m)
To calculate a dipole moment, multiply the particle charge by the distance.
Dipole Moment Definition
A dipole moment is defined as the product of the charge and radius between two particles in a chemical bond.
