← ScienceWhich consequence results when excess grain alcohol fermentation in a sealed container exceeds solubility limits?
A)Increased vapor space explosivity✓
B)Decreased vapor condensation rate
C)Inhibition of yeast metabolic activity
D)Elevated solution surface tension
💡 Explanation
Increased vapor explosivity occurs because exceeding ethanol solubility leads to increased partial pressure of alcohol vapor; this exceeds the lower flammability limit due to Raoult's Law, therefore the vapor becomes explosively flammable, rather than condensing.
