Answer:
Ice has a highly ordered three
dimensional hydrogen bonded structure. Each oxygen atom is surrounded tetrahedrally
by four other oxygen atoms, i.e., there is a hydrogen atom between each pair of
oxygen atoms.
This gives an open
cage like structure. Each oxygen is surrounded by four hydrogen atoms, two by
strong covalent bonds (95.7 pm) and two by weak hydrogen bonds (177 pm).
