Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 458
Question: The correct order of dipole moment is [Roorkee 1999]
Options:
A) $ CH_4\lt NF_3\lt NH_3\lt H_2O $
B) $ NF_3\lt CH_4\lt NH_3\lt H_2O $
C) $ NH_3\lt NF_3\lt CH_4\lt H_2O $
D) $ H_2O\lt NH_3\lt NF_3\lt CH_4 $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
The dipole moment of $ CH_4=0D, $
$ NF_3=0.2D,NH_3=1.47D $ and $ H_2O=1.85D $ . Therefore the correct order of the dipole moment is $ CH_4 \lt NF_3 \lt NH_3 \lt H_2O $ .
