← ScienceWhich outcome is caused when latent heat escapes during solidification?
A)Microstructure grain size increases suddenly✓
B)Liquid viscosity increases non-uniformly
C)Solid density reaches theoretical maximum
D)Undercooling occurs within newly formed crystals
💡 Explanation
Increased latent heat causes microstructure grain size increases suddenly because the Solidification process releases energy. This energy release encourages greater grain growth, therefore coarsening the final microstructure, rather than affecting density directly or being caused by viscosity changes or undercooling processes.
