The unit of polarizability of the molecule is ________.

  1. A \(C ^2 m^1 N^{-1}\)
  2. B \(C ^{-2} m^{-1} N^1\)
  3. C \(C ^{+2} m^{-1} N^{-1}\)
  4. D \(C ^{-2} m^1 N^{-1}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(C ^2 m^1 N^{-1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A)
\(\vec{p} \quad=\alpha \overrightarrow{E_0}\)
where \(\alpha=\) polarizability of molecule
\(\therefore \alpha=\frac{\vec{p}}{\overrightarrow{ E _0}}\)
\(=\frac{ C -m}{\frac{N}{ C }}=\frac{ C ^2-m}{N}\)
