What would cause a whining noise when steering wheel is turned right while driving a 1998 Pymouth breeze?

Low power steering fluid in the reservoir, bad power steeing pump or bad rack and pinion, hope for the first but if its low, fix the leak.

That noise is normally caused when air gets into the power steering fluid requiring "bleeding" of the system .
Its normally fairly easy to do basically you jack the front wheels off the ground
have a friend turn the steering to full lock and hold it there while you open the bleeding nipple .
have some tubing connected to the nipple to collect the fluid, it does come out with a bit of pressure. clear tubing is good so that you can see the air bubbles and when they have stopped .
keep topping up the fluid reservoir as you bleed it off otherwise air will get in again.
the engine needs to be running to pump the fluid while you are carrying out the bleeding operation.
the exact method may be in the workshop manual for your particular vehicle
