The basic nature of the hydroxides of group 13 (Gr. III B) decreases progressively down the group.

The dipole moment of CH₃F is greater than of CH₃Cl

Pick out the isoelectronic structures from the following
I. $$CH_3^+$$
II. $$H_3O^+$$
III. $$NH_3$$
IV. $$CH_3^-$$

The dipole moment of KCl is 3.336 $$\times$$ 10^-29 Coulomb meters which indicates that it is a highly polar molecule. The interatomic distance between K⁺ and Cl^- in this molecule is 2.6 $$\times$$ 10^-10. Calculate the dipole moment of KCl molecule if there were opposite charges of one fundamental unit located at each nucleus. Calculate the percentage ionic character of KCl.
