Diamagnetism and Hydrogen Bond Strength

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the impact of uniform magnetic fields on hydrogen bond strength and redox potential in water solutions. Multiple studies confirm that magnetic fields can enhance hydrogen bonding and increase surface tension, as evidenced by the research paper "Effect of a Magnetic Field on an Atomic Orbital" by Sami M. AL-Jaber and AbdelRahman M. Abu-Labdeh. The phenomenon is attributed to changes in electron orbital speeds influenced by magnetic orientation. This interaction suggests significant implications for the behavior of water under magnetic influence.

I've read a few papers regarding the effects of a uniform magnetic field on water solutions, but I'm a complete illiterate when it comes to deciphering the jargon. So far, many papers confirm that a uniform magnetic field strengthens hydrogen bonds and can increase the redox potential. I've included two papers exploring the effects. I hope someone can explain how this is happening.

Many experiments and textbooks confirm that (in the contemporary fashion) the orbit of an electron will speed up or slow down due to the orientation of a magnetic field.

Does the speed electron orbit affect the atom's potential to form a bond?

Here's a research paper exploring the effects of a magnetic field on the surface tension of water.

The conclusions were that surface tension increased. How is this happening? I appreciate your help!
