Which outcome occurs when control rods fail within a CANDU reactor?

💡 Explanation

An uncontrolled chain reaction will occur because neutron absorption stops; this is due to insufficient control rod insertion—called neutron moderation escape—therefore rapid, exponential fission occurs, rather than steady energy from regulated fission.
