Answer:

Hydrogen Bond

Step-by-step explanation:

Hydrogen bond interactions are formed between the hydrogen atom bonded to most electronegative atoms (i.e. F, O and N) of one molecule and most electronegative atom (i.e. F, O and N) of another molecule.

In this interaction the hydrogen atom has partial positive charge and electronegative atom has partial negative charge.

The partial negative charge at one end of a water molecule is attracted to the partial-example-1
