    The answer to your question is given below

    Explanation:

    A polar molecule is a molecule in which the electrons that made up the atoms in the covalent bond are not evenly distributed. That is the more electronegative element in the molecule tends to attract more electrons to itself thereby causing unevn distribution of the electrons.

    Water is composed of Hydrogen and oxygen and it considered a polar molecule because it has a bent shape which allows the more electronegative element oxygen to attract more electrons to itself, thereby causing an unequal distribution of the electrons that made up the covalent bond hence a partial positive and partial negative pole arise

    The two different poles in water molecule are:

    1. Partial positive pole.

    2. Partial negative pole.
