The dipole moment and bond distance measured for the highly reactive gas phase OH molecule are 1.78 D and 0.98 respectively. (a) Given these values calculate the effective charges on the H and O atoms of the OH molecule in units of the electronic charges e. (b) Is this bond more or less polar than the H-Cl bond in an HCl molecule? (c) Is that what you would have expected based on electronegativities?
