Answer 1

It is indeed Hydrogen bond i.e A....

Answer 2

Thank you soo soooo much i passed the test YAY!!!! @shreehari499

Answer 3

U r wlcm my friend.... :)

Answer 4

When hydrogen atoms bond covalently with highly electronegative atoms (O, F, N) its electrons are "pulled" towards the electronegative atom, causing a situation where the molecule becomes polar. Ie. in water molecules, the electronegativity of oxygen "pulls" the electrons from the hydrogen atoms toward the oxygen atom, making the ends of the hydrogen atoms furthest away from the oxygen atom relatively more positive in charge than the end of the oxygen atom furthest from the hydrogen atoms. This means that water molecules can form bonds between each other when the slightly more negative oxygen atom in one molecule is attracted to the slightly more positive hydrogen atom in another molecule. This is the cause of the high boiling temperature of water, surface tension and the fact that ice has a lower density than water.
