What is dipole moment?
Where ever i try to search for an answer it just tells me the formula in words. I dont understand it. I think that it has some other significant definition since there are forces that are induced due to existence of dipoles. How are forces made by dipoles that are not Coulomb's force? What is dipole? moment? How does having dipole moment alter the forces experienced by molecules? Why do we need to define it if dipole moment is defined as a product of charge and separation (please I am only trying to understand the need of dipole moment)? Do dipoles have other significant properties?
