In a molecular sieve with constrained pore sizes, which consequence results when excessively large molecules are introduced?

💡 Explanation

Reduced adsorption occurs because steric hindrance prevents entrance of oversized molecules, therefore blocking pores; this molecular exclusion is based on size exclusion, rather than diffusion changes or chemical catalysis.

• Which outcome occurs when a polymer's cross-link density exceeds the optimal for shape-memory?
• Which outcome accelerates when moisture accumulates inside aircraft insulation?
• Which outcome occurs when pressure increases is increased on a Haber-Bosch reactor at dynamic equilibrium?
• Which outcome results when a catalytic converter's reducing stage malfunctions?
• Which thermodynamic consequence results when hydrogen gas rapidly expands through a throttling valve?
• Which outcome accelerates corrosion rate in galvanic cell with dissimilar metals in seawater when temperature increases?
