← ScienceWhich risk increases when a chemical processing tank's coolant supply fails mid-cycle?
A)Uncontrolled exothermic reaction starts✓
B)Endothermic reaction cools too quickly
C)Solution viscosity remains stable
D)Product yield immediately increases
💡 Explanation
An uncontrolled exothermic reaction emerges because loss of cooling promotes thermal runaway. This causes the reactant rates to accelerate exponentially, rather than decreasing towards stable states, therefore explosion risks will increase.
