Question

The distance between ${\text{H}}^{+}$ and ${\text{Cl}}^{–}$ ion in HCl molecules is $1.38\text{Å}$. The electric potential due to this dipole, at a distance $10\text{Å}$ on the equatorial line of the dipole is

• A. $0.2\text{V}$
• B. $0.4\text{V}$
• C. $0.1\text{V}$
• D. Zero

Answer 1

The correct option is D Zero

On equatorial line of the dipole electric potential is zero.
