Which outcome raises detonation risk with adiabatic compression?

💡 Explanation

The adiabatic process raises temperature, which increases the concentration of short-lived intermediate radicals via thermal decomposition; because chain branching reactions are accelerated, therefore the detonation risk increases, rather than lower temperature mitigating it.
