Real potentials are at least slightly a harmonic

Reference no: EM13681258

The dipole moment of CH4 is zero, yet CH3D has a finite dipole moment. Describe why CH3D has a dipole moment. (Hint: Consider a simple qualitative model for potentials bonding H's and D's to C. Use your knowledge of the harmonic oscillator. Note that real potentials are at least slightly a harmonic.)
