A zwitterion, if you mean formal charges. If you just mean relatively positive and negative, then a polar molecule.
A zwitterion has a formal positive charge at one end of the molecule and a negative one at the other end.
Ethanol is a polar molecule due to the presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group, which leads to uneven distribution of charge within the molecule. This gives ethanol a positive and negative end, making it a polar solvent.
The molecule you are describing is polar, with a slight negative charge on one end and a slight positive charge on the other end. This indicates that the molecule has both acidic and basic characteristics, making it amphoteric.
A molecule that exhibits this type of polarity is called a dipole molecule. Dipole molecules have an uneven distribution of electrical charge, resulting in a positive charge at one end and a negative charge at the other. This separation of charge creates a dipole moment in the molecule.
A polar molecule doesn't necessarily have any overall charge. All polar means is that one part of the molecule has a negative charge and another part of the same molecule has a positive charge. These charges balance. When the charges don't balance and there is a net charge, it is referred to as an ion. An example of a polar molecule is fluoro-methane, or CH3F. The fluorine attracts the electrons in the bond a lot harder than carbon. so the fluorine has a negative charge while the carbon atom ends up with a positive charge.

A polar molecule is one that has a negative and positive end due to an uneven distribution of electron density. Water is a common example of a polar molecule, with its oxygen atom being partially negative and its hydrogen atoms being partially positive.
A polar molecule such as water
A zwitterion has a formal positive charge at one end of the molecule and a negative one at the other end.
yes. the positive end of the molecule attracts the negative end of the adjacent molecule
A zwitterion has a formal positive charge at one end of the molecule and a negative one at the other end.
Molecules that have partially positive and negative regions are called polar molecules. Polarity results from an unequal attraction of electrons between the atoms that make up a molecule. The electrons are more drawn towards atoms with a higher electronegativity, thus making these atoms partially negative.
yes. the positive end of the molecule attracts the negative end of the adjacent molecule
Polarity refers to the positive or negative charge of a molecule or its parts. In chemistry, it describes the separation of charge in a molecule that has areas of differing electronegativity. A polar molecule has a positive end and a negative end.
A zwitterion has a formal positive charge at one end of the molecule and a negative one at the other end.
