Increasing order of dipole moment is-
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
CF 4 is symmetrical and non-polar, hence µ = 0. In NF 3 , the resultant of three N–F dipoles oppose the effect of lone pairs of electrons of N-atom whereas in NH 3 , the effect of lone pairs of electrons of N atom and resultant of three N–H dipole are in the same direction. Therefore 
(= 1.46 D) > 
= 1.85 D.
