Answer:

(II) only correctly rank the bonds in terms of increasing polarity.

Explanation:

Bond polarity is proportional to difference in electronegativity between bonded atoms.

Atoms    Electronegativity          Bond        Electronegativity difference

Cl                          3.0                       Cl-F                      1.0

Br                          2.8                       Br-Cl                     0.2

F                            4.0                       Cl-Cl                      0

H                            2.1                       H-C                       0.4

C                            2.5                       H-N                       0.9

N                             3.0                      H-O                       1.4

O                             3.5                      Br-F                       1.2

I                               2.7                      I-F                         1.3

Si                             1.9                      Cl-F                       1.0  

P                              2.2                      Si-Cl                      1.1

                                                          Si-P                        0.3

                                                          Si-C                        0.6

                                                           Si-F                        2.1

So, clearly, order of increasing polarity : O-H > N-H > C-H

So, (II) only correctly rank the bonds in terms of increasing polarity
