MCQ
The crystal lattice of ice is mostly formed by:
  • A
    Ionic forces
  • B
    Covalent bonds
  • C
    Intramolecular $H-$bonds
  • Covalent as well as $H-$bonds

Answer

Correct option: D.
Covalent as well as $H-$bonds
Ice has hydrogen bonding and covalent bond, and intermolecular hydrogen bonds are weaker than Covalent bonds.
$H-O$ are covalent bonds$. H-O$ are intermolecular hydrogen bonding also with other neighbouring atoms.
