Question

How do you determine the polarity of a substance? Example?

Answer 1

This forum does not lend itself to drawing molecules; therefore, polarity is tough to explain. I suggest you google "polarity" and read and look at the examples Wikipedia gives. That site goes a good job of explaining it. I suspect you want to know how you know by looking at the molecule if it is polar; however, if want to know how polarity is measured, you should try other words in google.
