Polarity and Dipole moments
Dipole moment can be calculated as the product of
the charge (abbreviated Q) times the distance
(abbreviated r) between the charges.
The dipole moment of HCl is 1.03 D, and the bond length is
127 pm. What is the percent ionic character of the HCl bond?
First we will assume that this molecule is 100% ionic. In this
case, the charges are separated by the bond length, and we
can calculate the dipole moment in this extreme case.
The actual dipole moment measured for this molecule is 1.03 D, so the molecule is not completely ionic.

Why do CO2 and CCl4 do not have a dipole moment ?

The C–O stretching wavenumbers are shifted to lower values when there are changes in the extent of backbonding in the compound. Removing positive charge from the metal causes the shift of electrons from the metal to the CO π∗ orbitals causes the CO wavenumber values to decrease. The highest excess of negative charge on the metal occurs in the [V(CO)6 ]− complex and so more backbonding occurs than in the other complexes. The next highest excess of electron density is in Cr(CO)6 , and then [Mn(CO)6 ]+.

The spectra presented in Figure 5.6 show a trend in the wavenumber shifts for the three hexamine complexes; the N–H bands shift to lower wavenumbers from Co to Cr to Ni. This indicates that the N–H bond order (bond strength) decreases as the metal–N bond order increases in the stability order mentioned

SUPPLEMENTS
How do you distinguish whether the structure of transition metal complex molecule M(CO)4L2 is cis or trans by inspection of the CO stretching region of the IR spectra?
-> determine the symmetry group:
CO substitution pattern
-> Check the character tables:
