Which of the following statement is true with respect to $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}, \mathrm{NH}_3$ and $\mathrm{CH}_4$ ?

A. The central atoms of all the molecules are $\mathrm{sp}^3$ hybridized.

B. The $\mathrm{H}-\mathrm{O}-\mathrm{H}, \mathrm{H}-\mathrm{N}-\mathrm{H}$ and $\mathrm{H}-\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{H}$ angles in the above molecules are $104.5^{\circ}, 107.5^{\circ}$ and $109.5^{\circ}$ , respectively.

C. The increasing order of dipole moment is \mathrm{CH}_4<\mathrm{NH}_3<\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} .

D. Both $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ and $\mathrm{NH}_3$ are Lewis acids and $\mathrm{CH}_4$ is a Lewis base.

E. A solution of $\mathrm{NH}_3$ in $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ is basic. In this solution $\mathrm{NH}_3$ and $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$ act as Lowry-Bronsted acid and base respectively.
