I remember from physics that all charges are quantized, existing as
multiples of the charge in a single proton or electron. However, the entire
concept of polarity is based on electronegative atoms drawing electrons
closer to certain atoms, giving one atom a slight positive/negative charge
much smaller than the charge of one electron or proton.
Obviously something I just said must be wrong. I would appreciate any
clarification on this matter. Please make sure your response is also sent
via email.
