MCQ
Given below are two statements:
Statement-I: Since fluorine is more electronegative than nitrogen, the net dipole moment of $NF _3$ is greater than $NH _3$.
Statement-II: In $NH _3$, the orbital dipole due to lone pair and the dipole moment of NH bonds are in opposite direction, but in $NF _3$ the orbital dipole due to lone pair and dipole moments of N - F bonds are in same direction.
In the light of the above statements. Choose the most appropriate from the options given below.
