I did not mean to come across this and answer, but while I am here, yes. Glass is polar and results in the meniscus one would see in a glass test tube. This polarity is however not the reason one might notice they can fill a glass of water above the top (the reason for that is the attraction between the water molecules themselves). These two examples are great for explaining the difference between adhesion (former) and cohesion (latter). I hope this helped!

How does a drawing of polarity water and the bond polarities make a major contribution to the overall molecular polarity look?

The polarity is a vector quantity. The resultant of the polarity of bonds determines the polarity of the molecule. In CO2 there is polarity between the two C-O but the polarity is equal and opposite in direction so CO2 doesn't have polarity. If the polarity of bonds is not cancelled then the polarity remains in the molecule.


Why does alcohol wet glass?

Alcohol wets glass due to its low surface tension and high polarity. The hydroxyl group in alcohol molecules interacts with the polar surface of the glass, leading to a stronger attraction between the alcohol and the glass compared to the attraction between the glass molecules themselves. This causes the alcohol to spread out and form a thin film on the glass surface, rather than bead up like non-polar liquids such as oil.
