← ScienceWhich consequence results when rapid gas evolution overwhelms equilibrium?
A)Increased forward reaction rate
B)Thermal runaway reaction acceleration✓
C)Le Chatelier's principle dominance
D)Depleted solid reaction surface
💡 Explanation
Runaway occurs due to insufficient heat removal. The accelerating reaction, specifically autocatalysis, generates more heat leading to a faster rate, because positive feedback dominates, therefore thermal instability rather than simple product accumulation results when equilibrium control degrades.
