  2. Dipole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipole

    For example, the zero dipole of CO 2 implies that the two C=O bond dipole moments cancel so that the molecule must be linear. For H 2 O the O−H bond moments do not cancel because the molecule is bent. For ozone (O 3) which is also a bent molecule, the bond dipole moments are not zero even though the O−O bonds are between similar atoms. This ...

  3. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    The bond dipole moments do not cancel, so that the molecule forms a molecular dipole with its negative pole at the oxygen and its positive pole midway between the two hydrogen atoms. In the figure each bond joins the central O atom with a negative charge (red) to an H atom with a positive charge (blue).

  4. Dipolar compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipolar_compound

    Example of a dipolar compound, represented by a resonance structure In organic chemistry , a dipolar compound or simply dipole is an electrically neutral molecule carrying a positive and a negative charge in at least one canonical description.

  5. Intermolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermolecular_force

    An example of a dipoledipole interaction can be seen in hydrogen chloride (HCl): the positive end of a polar molecule will attract the negative end of the other molecule and influence its position. Polar molecules have a net attraction between them. Examples of polar molecules include hydrogen chloride (HCl) and chloroform (CHCl 3).

  6. Non-covalent interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-covalent_interaction

    A dipole-induced dipole interaction (Debye force) is due to the approach of a molecule with a permanent dipole to another non-polar molecule with no permanent dipole. This approach causes the electrons of the non-polar molecule to be polarized toward or away from the dipole (or "induce" a dipole) of the approaching molecule. [13]

  7. Polarizability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizability

    The polarizability of an atom or molecule is defined as the ratio of its induced dipole moment to the local electric field; in a crystalline solid, one considers the dipole moment per unit cell. [1] Note that the local electric field seen by a molecule is generally different from the macroscopic electric field that would be measured externally.

  8. Molecular solid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_solid

    The dipole-dipole interactions between the acetone molecules partially guide the organization of the crystal lattice structure. [23] (a) A dipole-dipole interaction between acetone molecules stacked on top of one another. (b) A dipole-dipole interaction between acetone molecules in front and bock of each other in the same plane.

  9. Lone pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lone_pair

    Lone pairs can contribute to a molecule's dipole moment. NH 3 has a dipole moment of 1.42 D. As the electronegativity of nitrogen (3.04) is greater than that of hydrogen (2.2) the result is that the N-H bonds are polar with a net negative charge on the nitrogen atom and a smaller net positive charge on the hydrogen atoms.
