are molecules that are polar in nature assymetrical or symmetrical ?i think assymetrical ?
I would think both possible.

Yes, you are correct. Molecules that are polar in nature are generally asymmetric or asymmetrical in shape.
To determine the symmetry or asymmetry of a molecule, you need to consider its molecular geometry. Molecular geometry refers to the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms within a molecule.
In an asymmetrical or asymmetric molecule, the atoms are arranged in such a way that the distribution of charges is not symmetrical. This uneven distribution of charge results in a permanent dipole moment, making the molecule polar. Polar molecules have a positive and a negative end, i.e., they have partial positive and partial negative charges on different regions of the molecule.
On the other hand, symmetrical or symmetric molecules have a balanced distribution of charges and no permanent dipole moment. This means that the molecule is nonpolar, as the charges cancel each other out.
Keep in mind that molecular geometry depends on the arrangement of atoms and the presence of lone pairs of electrons. By considering factors like bond angles, electronegativity differences, and molecular shapes, you can determine if a molecule is asymmetrical and therefore polar, or symmetrical and nonpolar.
