The correct response is:

**Electrical fields of charged particles interact, bonding those with opposite charges.**

In chemical reactions, the bonds that form and break between atoms are largely due to the interactions of the charged subatomic particles, specifically electrons, which can be gained, lost, or shared between atoms, leading to the formation of chemical bonds.
