Compute the magnitude of the electrostatic attraction energy between a silver cation (radius 129 pm) and a sulfide anion (radius 170 pm). Give your answer in al.
Compute the magnitude of the electrostatic attraction energy between a silver cation (radius 129 pm) and a sulfide anion (radius 170 pm). Give your answer in al. Note that magnitude means "absolute value" i.e. answer without arithmetic +/- sign.
The equilibrium separation between the two ions in the KCl molecule is 0.267 nm. (a) Assuming that the K+ and Cl- ions are point particles, compute the electric dipole moment of the molecule. (b) Compute the ratio of your result in (a) to the measured electric dipole moment of 5.41 x 10-29 C*m. This ratio is known as the fractional ionic character of the molecular bond.
