Interpretation:
The percentage ionic character of bond in HF is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
The magnitude of partial charges is calculated by the expression as follows:
Here,
The value of dipole moment is measured in Coulomb meter and the bond length should be taken in meter.
Percentage ionic character is defined as the ratio of observed dipole moment to calculated dipole moment.
The percentage ionic character is calculated by the expression as follows:
