Answer and Explanation:

Polar molecules are formed as a result of unequal sharing of electrons by the atoms in the molecule which creates polarization like that in water molecule.

If the electrons are shared equally by the atoms in the molecule then there won't be any polarization of the molecule and the molecule is non polar.

Electro-negativity is that property of an atom which lets it attract negative charges, i. e., electrons. The more the electro-negativity of an atom in the molecule the more are the chances of its polarization.
