B) CH3OH and NH3

Explanation:

Hydrogen bond is a type weak chemical interaction or bond which results from electrostatic attraction between a partially positive atom and a more electronegative atom. This electrostatic force occurs between hydrogen atom and a more electronegative atom or group such as nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine. In this case, the molecules of CH3OH and NH3, will exhbit hydrogen bond between hydrogen atoms and oxygen and nitrogen respextively.
