Relativistic analytical expressions are derived for the electric quadrupole moment induced by the hyperfine interaction of the electron with the nucleus of a hydrogen-like atom in the ns1/2 and np1/2 states. The magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole hyperfine interactions are taken into account. The calculations are performed using the generalized virial relationships for the Dirac equation in a central field. The dependences of the electric quadrupole moment on the nuclear charge Z and the principal quantum number n are analyzed. The induced quadrupole moments are compared with the nuclear quadrupole moments.
