if we have bond length of H-Cl is l and we know that the dipole moment is p=q*2l =.........<1e . and we know that electron can never exist in the rational form .so why is this happens in the H-Cl

Bond length is distance between hydrogen nucleus and chlorine nucleus. But bonded eectron pair between hydrogen and chlorine does not lie totally with chlorine so that we can say that a charge of -e is at chlorine atom and +e at hydrogen atom. It is some where in between hydrogen and chlorine and that is why dipole moment is ,e*l for HCl
