Figure for Answer to Question Edexcel A-Level Chemistry AS 7.2 The Interactions in Molecules Such As H2o Liquid Nh3 and Liquid Hf Which Give Rise to Hydrogen Bonding Questions question 1 — Edexcel A-Level Chemistry AS

The only correct answer is A

B is not correct because the 2 water molecules do not form a hydrogen bond between two hydrogen atoms

C is not correct because the hydrogen bond angle is not $104.5^{\circ}$

D is not correct because the angle between 2 water molecules should be $180^{\circ}$ and water molecules should not have a bond angle of $180^{\circ}$
