How do polar molecules respond when they are placed between two metal plates one positively charged and one negatively charged? A the molecules online and the electric field be the molecules joined together form in one large molecule see the molecules break apart as atoms migrate to the two plates d the molecule spin in circles

The molecules align with the electric field

Explanation:

Polar molecules have dipoles (parts of the molecules have partial charges). This is because the atoms with a larger atomic mass attract more of the electron cloud of the molecule hence become partially electronegative. The other part of the molecule becomes partially positive. Therefore these parts of the molecule will align with opposite charges including in this case based on the charged metal plates. The positive dipole will align with the negative plate while the negative dipoles will align with the positive plate.

The molecules align to the electric field.

Explanation:

A polar molecule is one that is neutral, that is, it does not have a net charge. But it has an internal distribution of charges that form a partially positive region and a partially negative region.

Coulomb's law indicates that charged bodies suffer a force of attraction or repulsion when approaching. The value of this force is proportional to the product of the value of its loads. The force is of attraction if the charges are of opposite sign and of repulsion if they are of the same sign. The force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.

Then, following Coulomb's Law, the negatively charged end of the polar molecule will be attracted to the positively charged metal plate. And the positively charged end of the polar molecule is attracted to the negatively charged metal plate.

Then, the molecules align to the electric field.
