Why is polarity an important factor when determining how molecules interact?

Answer/Explanation:

When a polar substance is put in water, the positive ends of its molecules are attracted to the negative ends of the water molecules, and vice versa.  Because molecular polarity results from the VECTOR sum of the individual bond dipoles. Water's polarity allows it to dissolve other polar substances very easily.

sure im new too!

explanation:

the answer is b because, investigating whether another species of moth also drinks tears might be interesting, but it would not directly explain why this species of moth does.

to explain why this species of moth drinks tears, the scientist could ask: "what nutrients that moths need are in elephant tears? "

the scientist could experiment with moth repellent or oter ways to keep the moths away, but that would not answer his original question.
