Can covalent bonds in water break by pushing them on a solid?

vendredi 1 novembre 2013

How do water molecules behave in the presence of a static electric field?



If I apply an electric field on water molecules, would they apply pressure to a solid surface (let's say a noble metal), and if so, what would happen? Could the oxygen wedge in between the atomic gaps on the surface of the solid? If the pressure is large enough, could the covalent bonds break?
