Solution

  1. The process that is used for the preparation of Ammonia from Nitrogen and Hydrogen is the Haber process.
  2. The reaction is reversible and exothermic in nature.
  3. And the catalyst used for this reaction is Iron.
  4. The equation for this reaction is,
  5. N2(g)Nitrogen+3H2(g)Hydrogen450°C,200atmFe(Iron)2NH3(g)Ammonia
  6. From the equation, it is visible that the reactants are taken in a ratio of 1:3.
  7. One for Nitrogen and three for Hydrogen.
  8. So the ratio is 1:3.
