Solution

The correct option is A $C H_{4} < N F_{3} < N H_{3} < H_{2} O$
$C H_{4}$ : is symmetric with $0$ dipole moment $N F_{3}$ and $N H_{3}$ : have similar geometry, $N H_{3}$ has greater bondangle, greater dipole moment $H_{2} O$ : $H - O$ bond is more polar, greater bond angle, greater dipole moment $C H_{4} < N F_{3} < N H_{3} < H_{2} O$
