Why in habers process nitrogen one part and hydrogen 3 parts are used

Open in App

Solution

Dear Student

The balanced chemical equation of Habers process is as follows:
N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) → 2NH₃(g)

Every 1 mole of nitrogen gas that takes part in the reaction will consume 3 moles of hydrogen gas and produce 1 mole of ammonia.
This is the reason why this concentration is used.
