Answer:

All of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

In letter A, B, and C; in different physical situation the molecule of water behave and put in charge with its peculiar polarity. Remember that is part its quite simple and molecular structure.

Water is "dipolar", because there is an uneven distribution of electron density. Water has a partial negative charge (Delta-) near the oxygen atom due the unshared pairs of electrons, and partial positive charges (Delta-) near the hydrogen atoms.
