Options:
  • A Dipole moment of ammonia is due to orbital dipole and resultant dipole in the same direction.
  • B In $\mathrm{BF}_{3}$ bond dipoles are higher but dipole moment is zero.
  • C Dipole moment is a vector quantity.
  • D $\mathrm{O}_{2}$ and $\mathrm{H}_{2}$ show bond dipole due to polarisation.

The correct answer is: $\mathrm{O}_{2}$ and $\mathrm{H}_{2}$ show bond dipole due to polarisation.
$\mathrm{O}_{2}$ and $\mathrm{H}_{2}$ do not show bond dipole as they are homoatomic molecules, hence, they are non-polar.
