Bridget · Answer 1

Hydrogen bonded materials

Explanation:

Metals have metallic bonds, polymers usually have covalent bonds and ceramic materials have covalent and ionic bonds; on the other hand, hydrogen bonds are a type of bonding characterized for have Van der Waals interactions, a type of intermolecular interactions, so the correct answer is Van der Waals interactions.
