Marvin Provide Dipole Moment Value for Molecule

I'm a relatively new user with little to no programming expertise. I use the online version of Marvin primarily.





Does Marvin have a built-in method/plug-in to calculate the dipole moment for a molecule? If not, is there a way to calculate it from other values that are available?

Dear Carls,








If the geometry of a molecule and the partial charge distribution of atoms are available then you can calculate dipole moment.





We don't have a separate tool for this purpose.


(Both the partial charge and the 3D geometry of a molecule can be obtained from Marvin.)





In this reference ,from the slide 34th you will find details for calculating molecular dipole moment:
