← ScienceWhich consequence results when isotopic enrichment exceeds reactor limits?
A)Control rod drive failure occurs
B)Breeding exceeds sustainable heat
C)Neutron flux reaches unsafe levels✓
D)Moderator material phase transition begins
💡 Explanation
Increased isotopic enrichment boosts neutron production via nuclear fission; therefore, surpassing the safe operating range promotes runaway chain reactions, because of increased neutron flux, rather than control rod failure, given sufficient system inertia.
