  1. A
  2. B
  3. C
  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

1. and : Symmetrical molecules, .2. and : Both are pyramidal.In , the bond dipoles and the lone pair dipole are in the same direction, adding up to a high value.In , the electronegative Fluorine pulls electron density away from Nitrogen, opposing the lone pair dipole. This results in a much lower net dipole moment.
