Why do aldehyde and ketone have high dipole moment?

Because of the greater electronegativity of oxygen, the carbonyl group is polar, and aldehydes and ketones have larger molecular dipole moments (D) than do alkenes. The resonance structures ... We expect, therefore, that aldehydes and ketones will have higher boiling points than similarly sized alkenes.
