Hey mate here is the answer

➡Dipole moments occur when there is a separation of charge. They can occur between two ions in an ionic bond or between atoms in a covalent bond; dipole moments arise from differences in electronegativity.

The larger the difference in electronegativity, the larger the dipole moment. The distance between the charge separation is also a deciding factor into the size of the dipole moment. The dipole moment is a measure of the polarity of the molecule.

✔✔When atoms in a molecule share electrons unequally, they create what is called a dipole moment. This occurs when one atom is more electronegative than another, resulting in that atom pulling more tightly on the shared pair of electrons, or when one atom has a lone pair of electrons and the difference of electronegativity vector points in the same way.

✔✔One of the most common examples is the water molecule, made up of one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms. The differences in electronegativity and lone electrons give oxygen a partial negative charge and each hydrogen a partial positive charge.

thank u ❤❤✌☺

pls mark it as the brainliest answer

y6yashraj2001: what about atoms
y6yashraj2001: you written only about polar molecules what about non polar molecules whose positive charge and negative charge centres lie at same place.i think electric field is applied to develop dipole moment in the non polar molecules like CO2 and CH4.
