ViviIn the Haber process, a catalyst (such as iron) helps lower the activation energy required for the reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to form ammonia. This leads to an increase in the rate of the reaction without being consumed in the process, allowing for more efficient production of ammonia.

Which process is iron used as catalyst?
Iron is used as a catalyst in the Haber process, which is the industrial method for producing ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen gases. The presence of iron catalyst helps to increase the rate of the reaction and improve the yield of ammonia.
Identify the metal used as the catalyst in the Haber process?
Iron is the metal typically used as the catalyst in the Haber process.
Is Methane used in the Haber process?
No, methane is not used in the Haber process. The Haber process produces ammonia from nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas in the presence of an iron catalyst under high pressure and temperature.
What are the raw materials used in the haber process?
The Haber process is good for producing ammonia. Per Wikipedia, use the following: Pressure 150-250 bars, temperature 300-550°C Have the reactant gases (1 part nitrogen to 3 parts hydrogen by volume) flow through 4 successive beds of magnetite (iron oxide) catalyst, cooling after each catalyst bed. The Haber process customarily starts with methane as the source of hydrogen gas, adding some steps.
What is the catalyst used in haber?
its an iron catalyst (iron oxide)
