Given below are two statements:
Statement-$I$: Since fluorine is more electronegative than nitrogen,the net dipole moment of $NF_3$ is greater than $NH_3$.
Statement-$II$: In $NH_3$,the orbital dipole due to lone pair and the dipole moment of $N-H$ bonds are in opposite direction,but in $NF_3$ the orbital dipole due to lone pair and dipole moments of $N-F$ bonds are in same direction.
