Question
  1. What defines a polar molecule? What is hydrogen bonding? 
Expert Solution
Step 1

A molecule is a group of two or more atoms that are chemically bonded together. The atoms can be of the same element, as in the case of diatomic molecules like oxygen (O2) and nitrogen (N2), or they can be different elements, as in the case of water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2).
