Option (A) is Right Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) A strong attraction between hydrogen and another atom

  • A hydrogen bond is a strong attracted between the hydrogen and another atom
  • A hydrogen bond is an incomplete partial inter molecular bonding between a solitary pair on an electron-rich donor molecule, especially the second-row elements nitrogen (N), oxygen (O), or fluorine (F), and the anti bonding orbital of a bond between hydrogen (H) and a progressively electronegative
  • Hydrogen holding is caused by the tendency of certain items in particles to pull in electrons more than their going with molecule
  • It gives the atom a changeless dipole moment
