Polarity :: 

The polarity of a molecule defines its other physical properties such as melting point, boiling point, surface tension, vapor pressure etc... Simply, polarity occurs when the electron distribution in a molecule is asymmetric. This results in a net dipole moment in the molecule. One end of the molecule is charged negative while the other gets a positive charge.

The polarization of a molecule greatly depends on the shape of the molecule. A diatomic molecule like HF mentioned above has no issue of shape. The net dipole moment is only due to the uneven distribution of electrons between the two atoms. However, when there are more than two atoms involved in making a bond, there are many complexities.

The water molecule is of bent shape. Therefore, when the two pair of electrons shared by oxygen with two hydrogen atoms is pulled towards oxygen, the net dipole moment results in the direction of the oxygen atom. There is no other force to cancel out the resultant dipole moment. Hence, the water molecule is highly polar.

Ammonia molecule is of a pyramid shape and the electronegative N atom pulls the electrons towards itself. The three N-H bonds are not in the same plane; hence the dipole moments created do not get canceled out. This makes ammonia a polar molecule.

However, the dipole moments sometimes get canceled due to the shape of the molecules, making the molecule non-polar. Carbon dioxide is such a molecule.

Delhi High Court has ordered a ban over online sale of medicines across India.

TON is the word which is the unit of weight. In forward it has weight of 1000 kgs and in backwords NOT which has no weight.

A typedef defines a new name for a type, and in simpler cases like the one shown below you can define a new structure type and a typedef for it at the same time.

typedef struct

{

    char name[20];

    int age;

} emp;

However, in the structure defined in this question, there is an error because a typedef declaration cannot be used until it is defined. In the given code fragment the typedef declaration is not yet defined at he point where the link field is declared.

Demand is said to be inelastic, when the demand for the good doesn't change much or it is negotiable when the price of the good changed.
