Chemistry Question from JEE Main 2024 · 30 January, Shift 2

Given below are two statements: Statement I: Since fluorine is more electronegative than nitrogen, the net dipole moment of NF3NF_3 is greater than NH3NH_3. Statement II: In NH3NH_3, the orbital dipole due to lone pair and the dipole moment of NHNH bonds are in opposite directions, but in NF3NF_3, the orbital dipole due to lone pair and dipole moments of NFN - F bonds are in the same direction. In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate from the options given below:

  • A

    Statement I is true but Statement II is false.

  • B

    Both Statement I and Statement II are true.

  • C

    Both Statement I and Statement II are false.

  • D

    Statement I is false but Statement II is true.
