The dipole moment of a molecule can be predicted by looking at the molecule's structure and the location of the dipoles within the molecule. When a molecule has no dipole moment, it will be nonpolar. A molecule with a dipole moment will be polar.
Polar means the molecule has a dipole, meaning there is unequal sharing of electrons and thus one side is slightly more positive and another is slightly more negative. Other substances are nonpolar because their structure cancels out the negatives and positives.
