In Haber's process, ammonia is manufactured according to the following reaction
`N_(2(g)) + 3H_(2(g)) hArr 2NH_(3(g)) , Delta H^(@) = -2.4 kJ`
The pressure inside the chamber is maintained at 200 atm and temperature at `500^(@)C`. Generally this reaction is carried out in presence of Fe catalyst.
`500^(@)C` is considered optimum temperature for Haber's process because : catalyst has maximum activity at this temperature, energy required is easily obtained at this temperature, yield is maximum at this temperature, rate is fast enough while the yield is also appreciable at this temperature

A

catalyst has maximum activity at this temperature

B

energy required is easily obtained at this temperature

C

yield is maximum at this temperature

D

rate is fast enough while the yield is also appreciable at this temperature
