Solution
Dipole moments of hydrohalocarbons :
The dipole moments of
CCl
4
CHCl
3
andCH
4
are in the order:
CHCl
3
>
CCl
4
=
CH
4
.
As in both, tetrachloromethane and methane have the same type of groups attached to central carbon thus their dipole moments will be nill.
But in the case of trichloromethane, there is a difference in the entities attached to central carbon resulting in a value of dipole moment.
Hence
CHCl
3
will have high dipole moments than the other two.
