I believe the answer is C, hydrogen bonds. A water molecule consist of two hydrogen atoms bonded to an oxygen atom, and a bent overall structure. Water molecules can only form hydrogen bonds between the partially positively charged hydrogen atoms in water molecules and a partially negatively charged atom in another molecules say oxygen in another water molecule.
