The bond length of hydrogen iodide is 1.61
1)=Q*r
where =dipole moment of the bond =0.44D
Q=magnitude of charge
r=bond length=1.61*10^-10m
1Cm=2.9979 *10^29 D
also 1A=10^-10m
now =0.44D * 1/2.9979 *10^29 D/Cm=0.1468 * 10^-29 Cm
so Q=/r=0.1468 * 10^-29 Cm/1.61*10^-10m=0.091161 * 10^-19 C=9.1161 *10^-21C
2)% ionic character=observed/(100% ionic) * 100
(for electron and proton separated by 1 A,=4.80D
=(1.69 * 10^-19 C) * 10^-10m=1.60 * 10^-29Cm=4.80 D)
For 100 % ionic H-I bond 1A apart=1.61/1 *4.80D=7.728D
% ionic character=0.44/7.728 * 100=5.69%
