← ScienceWhich consequence results when a pharmaceutical reaction's mixing rate under non-ideal conditions decreases significantly?
A)Increased concentration polarization near catalyst✓
B)Higher overall yield thermodynamic equilibrium
C)Decreased reaction heat accumulation locally
D)Optimal intermediate product stabilization occurs
💡 Explanation
Reduced mixing lowers reactant access to the catalyst; therefore, concentration polarization increases because local depletion exacerbates the diffusion layer, rather than increasing yield at equilibrium, and heat removal becomes challenging which reduces heat accumulation.
