Mention the conditions required to maximise the yield of ammonia.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Ammonia is prepared by the Haber's process

In accordance with Le Chateler's principle, to maximize the yield, a high pressure of `200xx10^(5) Pa` is used. To increase the rate of the reaction, a temperature of around `700 K` is used and iron oxide mixed with some `K_(2)O` and `Al_(2)O_(3)` is used as a catalyst. Sometimes, `Mo` is also used as a promoter to increase the efficiency of the `Fe` catalyst.
