A

From methane from crude oil

178
Q
  1. What conditions of pressure are required to increase the yield of ammonia in the Haber Process?
A

High pressure (because there are more molecules on the LHS of the equation)

179
Q
  1. The forward reaction is exothermic. What conditions of temperature are required to increase the yield of ammonia in the Haber Process?
A

Low temperature (The equilibrium will shit to try and produce heat)

180
Q
  1. Theoretically, a high yield of ammonia is produce at low temperature and high pressure. Why is this not used in reality?
A

Low temperatue will result in a slow rate of reaction. High pressures are expensive and dangerous.
