The total charge on an atom comes from protons and electrons.
The proton is positively charged while the electron is negatively charged. A neutral atom would have an equal number of protons and electrons.
An atom with more protons than electrons will be positively charged while those with more electrons than protons will be negatively charged.

Answer: polar molecule.
Explanation:
The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the external pressure surrounding the liquid. The boiling point is dependent on the type of forces present.
Iodine monochloride (ICl) is a polar molecule due to the difference in electronegativities of iodine and chlorine. Thus the molecules are bonded by strong dipole dipole forces. Thus a higher temperature is needed to generate enough vapor pressure.
Bromine
is a non polar molecule as there is no electronegativity difference between two bromine atoms. The molecules are bonded by weak vanderwaal forces and thus has low boiling point.
All other elements react with other elements to form compounds. In the special case where the reaction produces fixed numbers of the same types of atoms in exactly the same configuration, we say the elements have formed a molecule.
