HBr has dipole moment 2.6xx10^(-30)C-m. If the ionic character of the bond is 11.5%. Calculate the interatomic spacing.

Answer»

`1.4 OVERSET(@)A`
`2.4 overset(@)A`
`0.4overset(@)A`
`2.1 overset(@)A`

Solution :`%IC=(mu_("PARTICLE"))/(mu_("Thermicle"))XX100`
`11.5=(2.6xx10^(-30))/(1.6xx10^(-19)xxd)xx100`
`therefore d=1.4xx10^(-10)m`
