← ScienceWhich 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.
