In physics, the electric dipole moment is a measure of the separation of positive and negative electrical charges in a system of electric charges, that is, a measure of the charge system's overall polarity. The SI units are Coulomb-meter (C m). This article is limited to static phenomena, and does not describe time-dependent or dynamic polarization.

Specific heat: Equal masses of Different material require different quantities of heat to raise them same range of temperature. Specific heat is the quantity of heat required to raise 1 kg of a substance through 1-degree centigrade.

The dipole moment is a measure of the polarity of the molecule. Dipole moments occur when there is a separation of charge. They can occur between two ions in an ionic bond or between atoms in a covalent bond.

It means dispersion of +, - charge. I case of water 2 oxygen and 1 is hydrogen. On 2 oxygen -2 negative charge and 1 hydrogen has one + charge as ionic material are combination of +, - so good dissolved.

@Sachinmittal.

How could we decide which is positive materiel and negatively charged materiel. Please explain briefly.

No @Md Majeed Pasha,

Specific heat is the amount of heat required to change the state of 1 kg of the substance.

Sanjay said:   9 years ago
Specific heat is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 g of any substance by 1 degree Celsius.

Specific heat.

It is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temp by one degree Celsius.

Ganesh said:   1 decade ago
Dipole moment means the product of charge of ion and separation distance between ions.

Md majeed pasha said:   1 decade ago
Specific heat is amount of heat required to raise a 1c for 1kg of water.
