Question

Give the chemical equation for Haber's process.

Answer 1

• Haber's process: When nitrogen gas combines with hydrogen in the presence of $\mathrm{Fe}$ (iron) catalyst at $450°\mathrm{C}$, $200\mathrm{atm}$ pressure, ammonia gas forms.
• $\underset{\mathrm{Nitrogen}\mathrm{gas}}{{\mathrm{N}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)}+\underset{\mathrm{Hydrogen}\mathrm{gas}}{3{\mathrm{H}}_2\left(\mathrm{g}\right)}\underset{450°\mathrm{C},200\mathrm{atm}}{\overset{\mathrm{Fe}/\mathrm{Mo}}{\rightleftharpoons }}\underset{\mathrm{Ammonia}}{2{\mathrm{NH}}_3\left(\mathrm{g}\right)}$
