Solution
The correct option is A
Explanation for correct option:
(A)
Dipole moment:
“Dipole moment is the product of the separation of the ends of a dipole and the value of charges.”
In , the resultant of two dipole moments gain more strength by the resultant moment of bonds.
It has a dipole moment greater than the other two compounds.
Explanation for the incorrect options:
(B)
The resultant of two dipole moments is canceled by the resultant dipole moment of and bond, therefore decreasing the strength of the overall dipole moment.
(C)
It is a symmetrical compound so it has a zero dipole moment.
