Arrange the following in increasing order of dipole moment.

1.	Arrange the following in increasing order of dipole moment.
Answer» SOLUTION : In ortho-dichlorobenzene, dipole-dipole repulsion of twohalohens increases the hond angle (more than 60%) and hence, dipole MOMENT is lowerd. In ortho-nitrophenol, intramolecular H-BOND decreases the bond angle and hence, dipole moment is increased.
