The balanced chemical equation to manufacture ammonia by Haber's Process is:
Correct answer: D. N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) <=====> 2NH3 (g)
- A. 3N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) <=====> 2NH3 (g)
- B. N2 (g) + H2 (g) <=====> NH3 (g)
- C. 3N2 (g) + H2 (g) <=====> 2NH3 (g)
- D. N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) <=====> 2NH3 (g)
Explanation
Ammonia is synthesized in a process called Haber Process by Nitrogen (N2) and Hydrogen (H2) First of all, write the chemical equation for the formation of Ammonia N2 + H2 ---> NH3 Now balance the number of Nitrogen and Hydrogen on both sides N2 + 3H2 ---> 2NH3

About Haber's Process
Haber's process produces ammonia by reacting nitrogen with hydrogen in a reversible, exothermic equilibrium. The topic covers the iron catalyst, operating temperature and pressure, Le Chatelier's principle, the compromise between reaction rate and equilibrium yield, and the removal and recycling of ammonia and unreacted gases.
