Neither attract much nor allows it be free.
How the molecules behave in such way?
Because fluorine has a higher electronegativity than carbon and hydrogen, CH3F possesses a non-zero dipole moment. As a result, fluorine draws a partial negative charge whereas other atoms (such as carbon or hydrogen) draw a partial positive charge, leading to a non-zero dipole moment in CH3F. Lewis' structure, CH3F, is made up of one carbon atom, three hydrogen atoms, and one fluorine atom. Carbon is the key atom in the CH3F lewis structure because it is the least electronegative. The CH3F lewis dot structure consists of 3 lone pairs and a total of 4 bound pairs.
