← ScienceWhich consequence results when latent heat exceeds vaporization enthalpy threshold?
A)Boiling point temperature further elevating
B)Sudden pressure surge accelerating reaction✓
C)Sublimation transitioning toward deposition
D)Equilibrium favoring gas over liquid
💡 Explanation
A massive pressure surge occurs from rapid isothermal expansion because runaway increase in gaseous volume dominates during explosive boiling (Leidenfrost effect). Vapor pressure increases with temperature, therefore a surge occurs because vaporization intensifies rather than normal boiling maintaining equilibrium.
