Which mechanism prevents ice from having unlimited density?

💡 Explanation

Hydrogen bond saturation limits the density of ice because each water molecule can only form hydrogen bonds with a limited number of neighbors. Therefore, molecules are constrained, rather than allowing unlimited packing under increasing pressure.
