What is the unit of dipole moment? Also,write the formula for dipole moment.
(N/A) The practical unit of dipole moment is Debye,denoted by $D$.
$1 \ D = 3.33564 \times 10^{-30} \ C \cdot m$
Dipole moment $(\mu)$ = Magnitude of charge $(Q)$ $\times$ Distance of separation $(r)$
$\mu = Q \times r$
Where $Q$ is in Coulombs $(C)$ and $r$ is in meters $(m)$. The $SI$ unit is $C \cdot m$.
