In chemistry, polarity is a separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or its chemical groups having an electric dipole or multipole moment.
Polar molecules must contain polar bonds due to a difference in electronegativity between the bonded atoms. A polar molecule with two or more polar bonds must have an asymmetric geometry so that the bond dipoles do not cancel each other.
Polar molecules interact through dipole–dipole intermolecular forces and hydrogen bonds. Polarity underlies a number of physical properties including surface tension, solubility, and melting and boiling points.

Molecules consist of atoms that are made up of electrons, protons, and neutrons. The electrons are usually distributed equally throughout the molecule's outer shells, called the orbitals. However, when the electrons do not have an equal distribution in the orbital, you have a polar molecule. In a polar molecule, the ends of the molecule, called dipoles, carry an unequal charge.
This is an important concept because many areas of the body are either water soluble or fat soluble. A polar molecule is water soluble. A non-polar molecule is fat soluble. It's important to note here that in order for a solution to form, the molecules must be either both polar or both non-polar.
