What happens when the electric field is applied to a very polar molecule?

dipole when placed in nonuniform electric field it experiences a net force if field is varying in direction but if field is nonuniform in magnitude then force depends on its posititon it may experience a torque again depends on depends on its posititon so it may translate as well as rotate


An electric dipole placed with its axis inclined at an angle to the direction of a uniform electric field experiences?

It experiences a torque but no force. As the dipole is placed at an angle to the direction of a uniform electric field it experiences two opposite and equal forces which are not along the same line. This develops a torque which aligns the dipole along the field. The dipole does not experience any force as the two forces cancel each other.


If a magnetic dipole is placed in a magnetic field the dipole is found to have both rotational and translational motion.what would you infer about the magnetic field?

What are Dipole-dipole properties?

any atom or molecule or any group placed in electric field ,induced and two pole generate..in liquid form when we take it as solvent then it exerts the force on solute molecule,if contains that configuration by which it could rearrange and feel a force by solvent molecule means its generated pole attract oppositely to solvent molecule this way always increase its solubility...we can calculate this force also..if it is a solid matter then we can see more properties of its path in magnetic or electric field,can work as capaciter ...
