What is the Haber process?
.A reversible reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to form ammonia
Give three ways equilibrium is reached at a faster rate
.A higher temperature is used
.A higher pressure/concentration is used
.A catalyst is used
In industrial reactions conditions used are related to what two things?
.The availability and cost of raw materials and energy supplies
.The control of temperature, pressure and catalyst used produce an acceptable yield in an acceptable time
Which three elements/compounds may fertilisers contain?
