Which molecular outcome results when a strong electric field differentially polarizes a water (H₂O) droplet?

💡 Explanation

Increased hydrogen bond strength occurs because the applied field amplifies the dipole moment of each water molecule, enhancing electrostatic attraction via dipole-dipole interactions; therefore overall hydrogen bonding increases, rather than covalent destabilization under moderate field strengths.
