Ionic bonds
B
Covalent bonds
C
Hydrogen bonds
D
Glycosidic bonds
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Which of the following intermolecular interactions is easiest to disrupt via a change in temperature? Explanation: Hydrogen bonding can easily be disrupted by changes in temperature.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hydrogen Bonding (H-Bonding) They only occur between hydrogen and oxygen, fluorine or nitrogen, and are the strongest intermolecular force.

Detailed explanation-3: -A hydrogen bond is an intermolecular force (IMF) that forms a special type of dipole-dipole attraction when a hydrogen atom bonded to a strongly electronegative atom exists in the vicinity of another electronegative atom with a lone pair of electrons. Intermolecular forces (IMFs) occur between molecules.

Detailed explanation-4: -Intermolecular Forces : Example Question #2 Ionic bonds are the strongest type of bonds, followed by covalent bonds, hydrogen bonds, and lastly, van Der waals forces.

Detailed explanation-5: -Hydrogen bonding can be of both types, intermolecular and intramolecular. The important difference between intermolecular and intramolecular is that intermolecular bonding occurs between two neighbouring module’s atoms whereas intramolecular bonding happens within the module’s atom itself.
