The Lewis structure helps us identify the bond pairs and the lone pairs. Then, with the Lewis structure, we apply the valence-shell electron-pair repulsion (VSPER) theory to determine the molecular geometry and the electron-group geometry.

19 Αυγ 2020 · Dipole moments occur when there is a separation of charge. They can occur between two ions in an ionic bond or between atoms in a covalent bond; dipole moments arise from differences in electronegativity. The larger the difference in electronegativity, the larger the dipole moment.
10 Σεπ 2020 · Example 1. The diatomic \ (AB\). How do we determine a set of coordinates for \ (AB\) given only its bond length \ (r\). Since its absolute location in space and its orientation are arbitrary, any set of coordinates that reproduces the correct bond length will suffice.
The dipole moment is the measure of the polarity of a molecule. It occurs when there is a separation of charges. A dipole moment exists in a single atom or molecule. When it occurs in a molecule, it can be between two atoms in an ionic or covalent bond [1-4].
For one bond, the bond dipole moment is determined by the difference in electronegativity between the two atoms. For a molecule, the overall dipole moment is determined by both the individual bond moments and how these dipoles are arranged in the molecular structure.
To determine if a molecule is polar we have to look at all the bond dipoles present within the molecule. If no bond dipoles exist, the molecule is nonpolar. If we have bond dipoles present in the molecule we have to look at the addition of these and their orientation in 3D space.
The dipole moment, μ (lowercase Greek letter mu), is defined as the magnitude of the charge Q at either end of the molecular dipole times the distance r between the charges, μ = Q × r. Dipole moments are expressed in debyes (D), where 1 D = 3.336 × 10 –30 coulomb meters (C · m) in SI units.
