The dipole moment of `CH_3F` is greater than that of `CH_3Cl`.

A

`CH_(3) F gt CH_(3) CI gt CH_(3) Br`

B

`CH_(3) CI gt CH_(3) Br gt CH_(3) F`

C

`CH_(3) CI gt CH_(3) F gt CH_(3) Br`

D

`CH_(3) Br gt CH_(3) CI gt Ch_(3) F`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Dipole moment calculated for `CH_(3) CI` bond is slightly higher than `CH_(3) F` bond. This is due to large size of chlorine
