Flow chart in chemistry (definition)

Visual diagram showing step-by-step chemical production process

Haber process catalyst

Iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3\text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3)

Haber process equation

N2+3H2⇌2NH3\text{N}_2 + 3\text{H}_2 \rightleftharpoons 2\text{NH}_3

Why high pressure in Haber process

Increases collision frequency between reactant molecules

Why ammonia condenses in separator

Forms hydrogen bonds (high BP), unlike N2\text{N}_2 & H2\text{H}_2

Unreacted N2\text{N}_2 & H2\text{H}_2 in Haber process

Recycled back to beginning

Why use catalyst not very high temp in Haber process

High temp shifts equilibrium backwards, reducing NH3\text{NH}_3 yield

Raw materials (definition)

Substances found in nature in usable form

Haber process ΔH\Delta H value and type

−92.4-92.4 kJ mol−1^{-1}, exothermic

Two types of recycling in industrial processes

Chemical (unreacted materials) and energy (heat from reactions)
