MCQ+4 / -12024
Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : \(\mathrm{NH}_3\) and \(\mathrm{NF}_3\) molecule have pyramidal shape with a lone pair of electrons on nitrogen atom. The resultant dipole moment of \(\mathrm{NH}_3\) is greater than that of \(\mathrm{NF}_3\).
Reason (R) : In \(\mathrm{NH}_3\), the orbital dipole due to lone pair is in the same direction as the resultant dipole moment of the \(\mathrm{N}-\mathrm{H}\) bonds. \(\mathrm{F}\) is the most electronegative element.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
