B) hydrogen atom from one water molecule to form a hydrogen bond with the hydrogen atom of another water molecule. C) hydrogen atom from one water molecule to form a covalent bond with the oxygen atom of another water molecule. D) oxygen atom from one water molecule to form a hydrogen bond with the oxygen atom of another water molecule. E) hydrogen atom from one water molecule to form a hydrogen bond with the oxygen atom of another water molecule.
