How does the polarity of water assist the movement of molecules?

The movement of molecules are very important on earth, and they happen in and on every living organism. (totally wrong above this) Think of water molecules as magnets; each with an opposing pole. Like magnets, water molecules repel each other when two parts of the same pole are pushed together. The polarity of the water does the same thing, pushing the molecules apart.

Does boiling point affect the polarity of water?
No, boiling does not affect the polarity of water. What it does is create enough energy for the water molecules to separate from one another. But the water molecules are still polar.
