Dear Bayana,
Dipole moment=product of magnitude of charge on any ONE OF THE ATOM and the distance between them.(e.d) Large Application in electrostats. To differentiate between Polar and non polar bonds. To determine the %ionic character. ETC.

DIPOLE MOMENT IS NOTHING BUT THE PARTIAL SHIFTING OF ELECTRON TOWARDS AN ELECTRONEGATIVE ELEMENT IN A MOLECULE OR COMPOUND.
DIPOLE MOMENT IS USED FOR DETERMINING THE POLARITY, STRENGTH , ELECTRONEGATIVE CHARACHTER, AND
