Q. Statement 1 : The dipole moment of $NF _3$ is more than $NH _3$
Statement 2 : The presence of lone pair of electron on $N$ shows an additive contribution in dipole moment of $NH _3$ whereas it shows a negative contribution towards dipole moment of $NF _3$

Classification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties

Solution:

The dipole moment of $NH _3$ is more than $NF _3$ because of the given explanation
