Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
For figure 1, the net μ=0 as the CCl μ is cancelled by each other and hence no dipole moment.
For figure 2, the net μ0 as the CCl being more electron attracting bond, attracts the electron density of CH bond towards itself and has a non zero dipole moment.
