I also think it’s B but not quite sure
Answer: Because water has a high specific heat capacity due to the hydrogen bonding within the H₂O molecules ; so it takes a great deal of energy, or heat, to break these bonds— or to form them.

Answer:
4) transferred from the valence shell of one atom to the valence shell of another atom
Explanation:
Electrons are located outside of the nucleus which contains the protons and the neutrons.
For bonds to form, valence electrons located in the outermost shell electrons are involved. These are the valence electrons. These outer shell electrons can be shared or transferred between two combining atoms to form stable atoms.
In ionic bonds, the electrons are transferred from one specie to another. The atom that loses the electrons becomes positively charged and the receiving atom becomes negatively charged. This is the crux of ionic bonds.
A hydrated substance will decrease in mass when heated since the water is being boiled away.
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
What's wrong with this setup is the substrate on which you have positioned
the drop is "dirty and unclean" meaning it is not being dampened by
the solution. This action can be corrected by comprehensively cleaning the
substrate where the drop will be positioned.
