The answer is C.
The vast difference in electronegativity of the oxygen and hydrogen in water, the O-H bond is polar.
We can't even see half of the question
Hydrogen bonds are typically stronger than Van der Waals forces bc they are based on permanent dipoles, that form when hydrogen comes in vicinity of a highly electronegative atom (like F, N, or O). These bonds are long-lasting and pretty strong.
The correct answer among the choices listed above is option D. The average kinetic energy of water molecules as water freeze <span>decreases as water releases energy to its surroundings. Energy is released as the molecules go into a more condensed phase which is the solid.</span>
The answer is A :) your welcome hope this helps
