Which consequence results when the vapor pressure exceeds ambient pressure during isochoric heating of isobutane fuel?

💡 Explanation

Sudden boiling causes a Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion (BLEVE) because isochoric heating increases temperature and therefore vapor pressure rapidly. This exceeds ambient pressure, rather than achieving steady-state evaporation or orderly combustion.
