Answer 2

Answer:

HF>H2S>H20

Explanation:

HF>H2S>H20

• Dipole moment is the product of the electric charge and distance between the positive and negative species present in the molecule.
• A dipole moment is a measurement of the separation of two opposite electrical charges.
• Dipole moments are a vector quantity.
• The magnitude is equal to the charge multiplied by the distance between the charges and the direction is from negative charge to positive charge.

Hence the correct order for dipole moments is HF>H2S>H20
