Solution
The correct options are BCH3NH2 CCH3COOH DCCl3CH(OH)2 A hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between polar groups that occurs when a hydrogen (H) atom bound to a highly electronegative atom such as nitrogen (N), oxygen (O) or fluorine (F) experiences attraction to some other nearby highly electronegative atom. Hydrogen bonding is possible in CH3NH2,CH3COOH
Normally Cl does not form H-Bond but Chloral hydrate is an exceptional case where it shows H-bonding
