In the industrial process a mixture of nitrogen and
hydrogen is passed over iron at a temperature of about
450 °C and 200 atmospheres pressure.
(a)
Use the graph to find the percentage of
ammonia present when the temperature and pressure
are 450 °C and 200 atmospheres.................. %(2)
(b)
Explain why the nitrogen and hydrogen
mixture is passed over iron. (2)
(c)
Explain, as fully as you can, using the graph
and your knowledge of the Haber process why 450 °C and
200 atmospheres were chosen as conditions for this
process. (8)(Total 12 marks)
