Best Answer

A polar molecule has two poles, a negative pole and a positive pole (which is the result of an asymmetrical distribution of electrons). And in accordance with Coulomb's Law, opposite charges will attract, and same charges will repel. So polar molecules will arrange themselves so that the oppositely charged poles face each other, and thus are attracted.
