Transition Metals, Quantitative Chemistry and Industrial Processes
The Haber process
- 2 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.

Process
What substance is manufactured in the Haber process?
Questions from this subtopic
Each one with the model answer underneath.
- 1
Name the two elements that combine in the Haber process.
Model answer
Nitrogen and hydrogen combine.
- 2
What substance is manufactured in the Haber process?
Model answer
Ammonia is manufactured.
- 3
Give the balanced symbol equation for the reaction in the Haber process.
Model answer
N₂ + 3H₂ ⇌ 2NH₃.
- 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
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
Where is the hydrogen used in the Haber process obtained from?
Model answer
It comes mainly from natural gas, which is largely methane.
