  2. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    Note that the dipole moments drawn in this diagram represent the shift of the valence electrons as the origin of the charge, which is opposite the direction of the actual electric dipole moment. The bond dipole moment [5] uses the idea of electric dipole moment to measure the polarity of a chemical bond within a molecule. It occurs whenever ...

  3. Dipole moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipole_moment

    Transition dipole moment, the electrical dipole moment in quantum mechanics; Molecular dipole moment, the electric dipole moment of a molecule. Bond dipole moment, the measure of polarity of a chemical bond; Electron electric dipole moment, the measure of the charge distribution within an electron; Magnetic dipole moment, the measure of the ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Dipolar compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dipolar_compound

    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. In most dipolar compounds the charges are delocalized . [ 1 ]

  6. Carbon–fluorine bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon–fluorine_bond

    Carbon–fluorine bonds can have a bond dissociation energy (BDE) of up to 130 kcal/mol. [2] The BDE (strength of the bond) of C–F is higher than other carbon–halogen and carbon–hydrogen bonds. For example, the BDEs of the C–X bond within a CH 3 –X molecule is 115, 104.9, 83.7, 72.1, and 57.6 kcal/mol for X = fluorine, hydrogen ...

  7. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Although hydrogen bonding is a relatively weak attraction compared to the covalent bonds within the water molecule itself, it is responsible for several of the water's physical properties. These properties include its relatively high melting and boiling point temperatures: more energy is required to break the hydrogen bonds between water molecules.

  8. Chlorine monofluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorine_monofluoride

    The molecular structure in the gas phase was determined by microwave spectroscopy; the bond length is r e = 1.628341(4) Å. [2]The bond length in the crystalline ClF is 1.628(1) Å; the lengthening relative to the free molecule is due to an interaction of the type F-Br···ClMe with a distance of 2.640(1) Å.

  9. Electric dipole moment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_dipole_moment

    The electric dipole moment is a measure of the separation of positive and negative electrical charges within a system: that is, a measure of the system's overall polarity. The SI unit for electric dipole moment is the coulomb-metre (C⋅m). The debye (D) is another unit of measurement used in atomic physics and chemistry.
