Message:
Hydrogen bonds are said to be statistical bonds, with 10-11 s half-
life. If we suppose that for 1 second, there is no energy available
from the environment to rebuild these bonds, what would happen in
macromolecules: implosion, explosion, something else? (Let's consider
residual energy of breaking energy H bonds not sufficient for
rebuilding bonds during 1 second.)
Thank so much for sharing this question!
