Interpretation:
The dipole moment of the anti-conformation of
Concept introduction:
The dipole moment is defined as the charge separation between two atoms or ions in a covalent or ionic bond. If the value of dipole moment is zero, then the molecule is said to be non-polar, and if the value of dipole moment is not zero, then the molecule is said to be polar and possess permanent dipole moment.
If any structure is symmetrical, then overall dipole moment will be zero, and the bond becomes non-polar. Also, a bond can be considered polar if there is some electronegativity difference between the atoms.

- Q 1(a) Methane, CH4 is a tetrahedral molecule and does not exhibit a permanent dipole moment (i.e. it has a dipole moment of 0). Nonetheless, in microwave spectroscopy methane does exhibit a weak, but measurable absorbance. Explain why you think this is the case? Q 1(b) The diatomic molecule 12C32S has been detected in interstellar gas clouds by microwave spectroscopy. The masses of the two atoms are C = 12.00 amu and S= 31.972 amu and 12C32S has an equilibrium bond length of 1.534 Å. Predict which rotational transition in 12C32S will have the greatest population at a temperature of 85 K.arrow_forward13C NMR spectroscopy provides valuable information about the environments of a molecule's carbon atoms. Since carbon atoms are often connected to hydrogen atoms, which could split the carbon signal through spin-spin coupling, the coupling between C and H is often "turned off" through the use of broadband decoupling, causing each C signal to appear as a singlet.
