← ScienceWhich risk increases when industrial batch reactors operate isothermally?
A)Runaway reaction due to heat accumulation✓
B)Diminution in product molecular weight distribution
C)Increase in chain-stopping polymerization events
D)Decrease in average catalyst turnover number
💡 Explanation
A runaway reaction is more likely because positive feedback from Arrhenius’ Law exponentially increases reaction rate upon small over-temperature, therefore, thermal control is lost rather than a steady state solution attained because of the exponential effect.
