← ScienceWhich risk increases when exceeding the Le Chatelier’s principle threshold in industrial ammonia synthesis?
A)Catalyst poisoning by byproduct accumulation
B)Decreased reaction rate equilibrium shift
C)Increased activation energy requirement needed
D)Exothermic runaway reaction acceleration✓
💡 Explanation
Exceeding Le Chatelier’s principle causes a runaway reaction because heat increases exponentially, causing increased kinetic energy input until vessel failure. Therefore, thermal stress goes up exponentially rather than linearly slowing the reaction, and not catalyst failure.
