Solution
The correct option is CCHCl3 CHCl3 is having the maximum dipole moment because in the tetrahedral structure all the Cl will be at the bottom and will lead to the addition of their individual dipoles.
Whereas in CCl4 a little dipole is reduced due to the subtraction of the individual dipole of a Cl present at the top.
CH2Cl2 and CH3Cl will have a small resultant dipole because of less number of individual dipoles to add.
