Give the decreasing order of dipole moments of `HF,HCI,HBr`, and `HI`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

This is on account of inter molecular hydrogen bonding present in the molecules of HF. They get associated and acid exists as a liquid at room tremperature. Since this is absent in the other hydra acids, they remain in the gaseous state.
