A molecule with unequal sharing of electrons is called a polar molecule. In these molecules, one atom has a stronger electronegativity than the other, causing an uneven distribution of electron density. This results in a dipole moment, where one end of the molecule has a slight positive charge and the other end has a slight negative charge. Common examples include water (H₂O) and ammonia (NH₃).
