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 dipole moment is a measure of the polarity of the molecule.

A dipole moment is simply the measure of net polarity in a molecule.Polar molecules exhibit a large difference in electrical charge (a positive end and a negative end), otherwise known as a dipole moment. For example, ammonia (NHsub3) is a polar molecule.
