Electric Charges and Fields

One of the fundamental properties is the electromagnetic property. Charge cannot be destroyed by any process and this contributes formally to the law of charge conservation.

Question

Many molecules are described as polar; that is, they have regions that are positively or negatively charged, though they are neutral overall. Draw a diagram to show how sausage-shaped polar molecules like those shown in Figure 8.8 might realign themselves in a solid.
