True / False

State True or False. Dipole moment is completely based on ionic nature of bond.

Solution

The Dipole moment is based on the polar nature of a covalent bond. Two atoms form a covalent bond by sharing electrons and the electrons are directed towards the more electronegative atom. This bond is polar and has some dipole moment.
