Polar molecules occur when there is an electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms. Nonpolar molecules occur when electrons are shared equal between atoms of a diatomic molecule or when polarbonds in a larger molecule cancel each other out.

Polar molecules -bond between two atoms with highly different electronegativity - which means one atom has a tendency to pull the bonded electrons towards itself - which means there is a high electron density to one side of the molecule - it's strong - mostly non volatile - non equal sharing of electrons (covalent bond ) Non polar - alike polar , their electrons are shared equally. - do the Lewis structure of the molecule and notice how much of a pull there is I'm different directions on the central atom (easy way 😉) - volatile - electron density is equally distributed around the central atom - between two or more atoms with similar or close electronegativity - mostly form a linear or + shape when you draw the Lewis structure G 11 unit 3

All molecules that have a lone pair of electron on the central are polars. Non polar most of the time they r caused by equally sharing of dipole moment. For eg. CH4 (methen)is non polar because all dipole moment that traced from the hydrogen atoms are cancelled. But look at this eg. CH3F.. this compound is polar because the dipole moment originate from fflourin is not balanced by asingle hydrogen. I hope u understnad it. If so tick the answer

When Electrons are shared equally it's non polar and if not polar ( why didn't you Google it)

Their difference is based on the distribution of electron in their bond polar has more electronegative bond and are different in size and range than non polar by measuring it's polarity u will know if it ranges 0.5 to 1.7 it's polar non polar demo have similar electonegatvity and their difference is less than 0.5
