← HistoryWhich consequence resulted when a miscalibration occurred during the early Byzantine formulation of Greek fire?
A)Reduced flame projection distance✓
B)Increased volatilization ambient gases
C)Unintended catalyst poisoning occurred
D)Over-stabilization exothermic reaction
💡 Explanation
Reduced flame projection occurred because imprecise mixing ratios altered the Heat of Combustion via partial oxidation, lessening thrust, therefore, propulsion ranged decreased rather than more toxic fumes, poisoning the catalysts, or over stabilization because ratios dictated the process control.
