Opposite ends have opposite charges.
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

B. opposite charges

Step-by-step explanation:

Polarity is a separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or its chemical groups having an electric dipole moment, with a negatively charged end and a positively charged end.

Polar molecules must contain polar bonds due to a difference in electronegativity between the bonded atoms.
