In Haber's process, the final product ammonia is converted into:

Correct answer: B. Liquid state

  • A. Solid state
  • B. Liquid state
  • C. Gaseous state
  • D. None of these options is correct

Explanation

In the Haber's process, ammonia (NH3) is synthesized in the gaseous state from nitrogen (N2) and hydrogen (H2) under high pressure and temperature with an iron catalyst. The question focuses on what happens to ammonia after its formation. Ammonia gas is typically converted into a liquid state by cooling and pressurizing, which facilitates its separation from unreacted nitrogen and hydrogen gases and allows for easier transportation and storage. Therefore, Option B, 'Liquid state,' is correct. Option A is incorrect because ammonia is not converted into a solid state under these conditions. Option C is incorrect because, while ammonia is produced as a gas, the question asks about its conversion. Option D is incorrect because Option B provides the correct answer.

About Chemical Equilibrium

Reversible reactions reach dynamic equilibrium when forward and reverse rates become equal, and Le Chatelier's principle predicts the effect of changing concentration, pressure or temperature. The chapter also covers solubility product, the common ion effect, buffer action and the conditions used in Haber's process, with equilibrium shifts distinguished from changes in the equilibrium constant.
