`HF`

B

`HCl`

C

`HNO_3`

D

`H_2SO_4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
We know that greater the difference in electronegativity of two atoms forming a covalent bond. More is its polar nature. In HF there is a much difference in the electronegatives of hydrogen and fluorine. Therefore (HF) is a most polar compound.
