Vedclass · Answer

(D) The dipole moment $(\mu)$ depends on the electronegativity difference between atoms and the geometry of the molecule.
$1$. $CH_3CH_2CH_3$ is a non-polar hydrocarbon with a very low dipole moment.
$2$. $CH_3OCH_3$ (dimethyl ether) has a dipole moment of approximately $1.30 \ D$.
$3$. $CH_3Cl$ (chloromethane) has a dipole moment of approximately $1.86 \ D$.
$4$. $CH_3CN$ (acetonitrile) has a very high dipole moment of approximately $3.92 \ D$ due to the strong electron-withdrawing effect of the cyano group $(-CN)$ and the linear geometry of the $C-C \equiv N$ bond,which creates a large charge separation.
Therefore,$CH_3CN$ has the maximum dipole moment.
