Answer:
OCS having higher dipole moment.
Explanation:
In the structure of cs2 it is linear but the Electronnegativity of the atoms that is sulphur is same. Hence the dipole moment is cancelled out by each other.
Where as in case of OCS it is also linear in nature. But the difference in the electronegativities of the oxygen and sulphur. Oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur. Hence the net dipole moment towards oxygen is higher.
