Polar
How do you know if a molecule is polar or not so you can state whether it is a dipole-dipole or london dispersion?

Re: Polar
If one "side" of the molecule has a greater electronegativity, which means one side will attract the electrons much more than the other, then it'll be polar

Re: Polar
Polarity depends on electronegativity. The difference of electronegativty between the two atoms signifies whether they will have a positive or negative partial charge.

A dipole-dipole interaction between molecules alludes that the molecule is polar while london dispersion forces alludes to the molecular interactions being non polar. An interaction, in all cases, is considered covalently polar if the differenece in electronegativity of the 2 atoms is greater than 0.5 and less than 1.5.
