Question :-

Explain Haber's Process. Write Chemical Equations if any.

____________________

Answer :-

On an industrial scale, ammonia is prepared by Haber’s process. The constituents of ammonia and combine in a ratio of 1 : 3.

The reaction then proceeds in forward direction and a noticeable decrease in volume occurs. In accordance to Le Chatelier’s principle, high pressure would favour the formation of ammonia. The optimum conditions for the production of ammonia are a pressure of approx 200 atm, a temperature of approx 700 K and the use of a catalyst such as iron oxide with small amounts of and to increase the rate of attainment of equilibrium.

Chemical Equation for the process :-

Extra Information :-

• The product formed by Haber's Process is Ammonia .

• It is an artificial nitrogen fixation process and is the mainly for industrial production.

• The yield of ammonia is altered by increasing the reaction's temperature or pressure because the Haber cycle is a reversible reaction. Increasing the reaction pressure results in an increase in the ammonia yield.

• This process is also called Haber–Bosch process.

• The process is named after its inventors, Fritz Haber and Carl Bosch.
