This page discusses the atomic theory. Please note that atoms are theory, not fact.
A dipole is a molecule which has two magnetic poles, caused by a non-zero total magnetic charge. The poles are normally denoted north and south, respectively. Common dipole molecules are water, ozone (but not atmospheric oxygen O2), and benzene. As is well know oil and water don not mix. That is because most or all oil molecules have a different molecular polatity than water.
