Describe the characteristics of a polar molecule.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Characteristics of polar molecule

- they should have opposite charge

- they should have same dipole moment value

- they should have electronegativity different

Explanation:

Polar molecule is characterized by an uneven distribution of the electrons that form the covalent bonds between each atoms in the molecule

Polar molecules has a net dipole as a result of opposing charges from polar bonds, since water has slightly positively charged side and a slightly negatively charged side. This makes it a polar molecule
