Which outcome occurs when the agitator speed exceeds design limits in an industrial chemical reactor?

A)Increased mass transfer resistance develops
B)Rate constants experience thermal decoupling
C)Mixing reaches turbulent energy dissipation
D)Activation energy experiences quantum tunneling

💡 Explanation

Turbulent energy dissipation raises the local temperature due to kinetic energy conversion; because more energy dissipates at higher agitator speeds, the mixing degrades rather than remaining ideal; therefore localized overheating will reduce performance of catalyzed reactions.
