Which of the following has been arrange in order of detereasing dipole moment?A. `CH_(3)CI gt CH_(3)F gt CH_(3)Br gt CH_(3)I`B. `CH_(3)F gt CH_(3)CI gt CH_(3)Br gt CH_(3)I`C. `CH_(3)CI gt CH_(3)Br gt CH_(3)I gt CH_(3)F`D. `CH_(3)F gt CH_(3)CI gt CH_(3)I gt CH_(3)Br`

Answer» Correct Answer - a
Dipole moment depends on the electronegativity of the elements as it is the product charge on one of the ions and the distance between them. Dipole moment of `CH_(2)CI` is greater than `CH_(2)F` due to more charge separation (a fact)
