← ScienceWhich outcome relating to chemical reaction rate occurs when the stirring rate of reactants in a batch reactor exceeds the reaction rate?
A)Rate becomes diffusion-limited
B)Conversion rate improvement plateaus✓
C)Activation energy greatly decreases
D)Kinetic isotope effect is enhanced
💡 Explanation
Conversion plateaus because the rate-determining-step shifts to chemical reaction limitations, therefore agitation is maximized, but further increases confer minimal gains, rather than the reaction becoming diffusion limited which would necessitate slower agitation.
