Has Maximum Dipole Moment?

For example, NaCl has the highest dipole moment because it has an ionic bond (i.e. highest charge separation). In the Chloromethane

Chloromethane
Chloromethane, also called methyl chloride, Refrigerant-40, R-40 or HCC 40, is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH3Cl. One of the haloalkanes, it is a colorless, odorless, flammable gas. Methyl chloride is a crucial reagent in industrial chemistry, although it is rarely present in consumer products.

molecule (CH3Cl), chlorine is more electronegative than carbon, thus attracting the electrons in the C—Cl bond toward itself (Figure 1).

Which of the following has maximum dipole moment?

Since, the electronegativity difference is highest in case of N-H bonds, therefore NH3 has the highest dipole moment.

Which compound has maximum dipole?

All are isostructural but NH3 is made up of N and H. Electronegativity difference between N and H is maximum among all, hence NH3 has highest dipole moment.
