The correct order of dipole moment is ....

The correct order of dipole moment is .

A

`CH_4 le NF_3 lt NH_3 lt H_2O`

B

`NF_3 lt CH_4lt NH_3 lt H_2 O`

C

`NH_3 lt NF_3 lt CH_4 lt H_2O`

D

`H_2O lt NH_3 lt CH_4 lt NF_3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
In `H_(2)O` , electronegativity difference is highest . So , dipole moment is highest in this . `CH_(4)` is a symmertical tetrahedral structure and its dipole moment is zero .
