← ScienceWhich consequence results when the rate constant exceeds temperature limits?
A)Product equilibrium is never reached
B)Excessive exothermic runaway occurs rapidly✓
C)Lower activation energy barriers occur
D)Reaction order becomes non-integral number
💡 Explanation
Excessive exothermic runaway occurs when the rate constant increases above safe design parameters, because thermal energy generation exceeds cooling limits. Therefore, the system overheats rapidly, rather than proceeding towards safe equilibrium conditions under control.
