Question

When a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen gas in the ratio 1:3 by volume is heated at a temperature of 450-5000C and 200-900 atmospheric pressure in the presence of iron as catalyst and molybdenum as promoter, ammonia gas is produced.


                                       

 

Consider the reaction:

              N(g)    + 3H2(g)      →   2NH3(g)
