haber process Flashcards
raw materials for the haber process aren
nitrogen and hydrogen
a use of ammonia
nitrogen based fertilisers for farming or as a cleaning product
what is the symbol equation for the haber process is
n2+3h2=3nh3
source of nitrgoen
extracted from the air
source of hydrogen
reacting methane with steam
stemps with the haber process
nitrogen and hydrogen are purified and passed over a iron catalyst at around 45 degrees and 2000 atmospheric pressure
what do the conditions cause the nitrogen and hydrogen molceules to do what
react to form ammonia but is it a reversable reaction so some ammonia breaks down into hydrogen and nitrogen
how do you increase the yield of ammonia
we cool the ammonia to turn it into a liquid which is removed
what is the last step of the haber porcess
recycle the unreacted nirtrogen and hyd=grogen over the catatalyst
