Which of the following is not true for increase in synthesis of ammonia by Haber's process?N2 +3H2 - 2NH3 ( Д =-92.5)

Correct answer: D. Continuous addition of NH3

  • A. Low temperature
  • B. High pressure
  • C. Continuous removal of NH3
  • D. Continuous addition of NH3

Explanation

In the Haber's process, ammonia is synthesized from nitrogen and hydrogen gases. To maximize the yield of ammonia, it's important to maintain low temperature, high pressure, and continuously remove the formed ammonia (Le Chatelier's principle). Continuous addition of NH3 would counteract the process's goal, so it is not true for increasing ammonia synthesis.

About Thermochemistry and Energetics of Chemical Reactions

Thermochemistry measures energy changes in chemical reactions and distinguishes exothermic from endothermic processes. Work covers systems, surroundings and state functions, internal energy, the first law of thermodynamics, enthalpy and Hess's law, including the sign conventions used when heat enters or leaves a system.
