Week-2-PROPERTIES-OF-POLAR-AND-NON-POLAR-MOLECULES

Polar Molecules: Molecules that have an uneven distribution of charge, resulting in a dipole moment. Examples include water (H2O) and ammonia (NH3).

Non-Polar Molecules: Molecules that have an even distribution of charge, leading to no dipole moment. Examples include methane (CH4) and diatomic gases like O2 and N2. In summary, the distinction between polar and non-polar molecules is crucial for understanding solubility and molecular interactions in various chemical environments.
