← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a sealed container of tritium gas exceeds a specific temperature?
A)Increased rate of radioactive beta decay
B)Shift in isotopic equilibrium
C)Decrease in nuclear binding energy
D)Enhanced molecular diffusivity✓
💡 Explanation
Enhanced molecular diffusivity occurs because higher temperatures increase the kinetic energy of tritium molecules, therefore they collide more frequently, leading to higher effusion; rather than altered decay, which is unaffected by temperature within normal limits.
