Given below are two statements: Statement - I: Since Fluorine is more electronegative than nitrogen, the net dipole moment of $\displaystyle \mathrm{NF}_3$ is greater than $\displaystyle \mathrm{NH}_3$. Statement - II: In $\displaystyle \mathrm{NH}_3$, the orbital dipole due to lone pair and the dipole moment of NH bonds are in opposite direction, but in $\displaystyle \mathrm{NF}_3$ the orbital dipole due to lone pair and dipole moments of N-F bonds are in same direction. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate from the options given below:
