H2O > NH3 > NF3 > CH4=0

H2O has max lone pairs so dipole moment max

Yeah but how will we will decide NH3 vs NF3 vs CH4 Please answer

CH4 is symmetrical so zero

In NH3 the N-H and lone pair are in same direction
while in NF3 the N-F are in one direction while lone pair is in other direction

So, NH3>NF3

for NH3 and NF3 u cna also compare htis way...

F is nearer to N in periodic table...so they will have approx same EN..so dipole moment wont be that high
whereas H is located far from N..so their EN's will differ by some considerable amt...so dipole moment is also appreciable..
so NH3>NF3
