View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
CH2Cl2>CHCl3>CH3Cl>CCl4{CH}_2 {Cl}_2>{CHCl}_3>{CH}_3 {Cl}>{CCl}_4
Option B (CH2Cl2>CHCl3>CH3Cl>CCl4{CH}_2 {Cl}_2>{CHCl}_3>{CH}_3 {Cl}>{CCl}_4) is correct because the dipole moment depends on the vector sum of bond dipoles, and the symmetry in CCl4CCl_4 cancels out the dipole moment.
