The Haber process

  • 3 things to know
  • Paper 1

Overview

The elements combined and the ammonia made, the symbol equation and what ⇌ means, where the nitrogen and hydrogen are obtained, why one pass is incomplete, and fertiliser use.

Questions from this subtopic

Each one with the model answer underneath.

  1. 1

    Name the two elements that combine in the Haber process.

    Model answer

    Nitrogen and hydrogen combine.

  2. 2

    What substance is manufactured in the Haber process?

    Model answer

    Ammonia is manufactured.

  3. 3

    Give the balanced symbol equation for the reaction in the Haber process.

    Model answer

    N₂ + 3H₂ ⇌ 2NH₃.

  4. 4

    What does the symbol ⇌ tell you about the Haber reaction?

    Model answer

    It shows the reaction is reversible, so ammonia also breaks back down into nitrogen and hydrogen.

  5. 5

    Where is the nitrogen used in the Haber process obtained from?

    Model answer

    It is obtained from the air, which is about 78% nitrogen.

  6. 6

    Where is the hydrogen used in the Haber process obtained from?

    Model answer

    It comes mainly from natural gas, which is largely methane.
