Solution
The correct option is A True The given statement is True. The net dipole in the water (H2O) molecules is the resultant of its bond dipoles. Non linear water (H2O) molecule has bent geometry. The net dipole moment is the vector addition of two OH bond dipoles that form an angle of 104.5o with each other. The net dipole moment of water is 1.84 D.
