It means that one end, or one or more parts of the molecule is slightly electrically charged, such that one part of the molecule is positive and another part is negative.

What does it mean when a molecule is said to be polar?

A polar molecule is one in which the distribution of electrons is uneven, resulting in partial positive and negative charges within the molecule. This creates a separation of charge, with one side being slightly positive and the other slightly negative. Examples of polar molecules include water (H2O) and ammonia (NH3).

If electrons are shared equally between atoms that compose a molocule that molocule is said to be polar?

No, if electrons are shared equally between atoms in a molecule, the molecule is said to be nonpolar. A polar molecule occurs when there is an uneven distribution of electrons, leading to regions of partial positive and negative charges.


A molecule whose ends have opposite electric charges is called a what molecule.?

A polar molecule has regions of opposing charge. For example in water the hydrogen are in a relatively positive area, as compared to the highly electronegative oxygen. The bent or L-shape to water is because of this polarity.


Why is molecule polar?

If you mean "Why is a molecule polarized" it would be because there is a more negative charge to one end of the molecule than the other.
