Which of the following are arranged in the decreasing order of dipole moment?

A

`CH_(3)F,CH_(3)Cl,CH_(3)Br`

B

`CH_(3)Cl,CH_(3)F,CH_(3)Br`

C

`CH_(3)Br,CH_(3)Cl,CH_(3)F`

D

`CH_(3)Br,CH_(3)F,CH_(3)Cl`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Dipole moment, in general, decreases from `CH_(3)Cl` to `CH_(3)F` has unexpectedly lower dipole moment than `CH_(3)Cl`. This is due to small C-F bond length.
