Mention the conditions required to maximise the yield of ammonia.
Ammonia is prepared using the Haber’s process.
The conditions required to maximize the yield of ammonia are as follows:
1 In accordance to Le Chatelier’s principle ,low temperature will shift the equilibrium to the right because the reaction is exothermic.This gives greater yield of ammonia.Therefore a temperature of about 450°C will be optimal for the preparation of ammonia.
2 High pressure on the reaction at equilibrium favours the shift of the equilibrium to the right because the forward reaction proceeds with a decrease in number of moles.Hence a pressure of about 200 atm will be optimal for the higher yield of ammonia.
3 A catalyst should be used to increase the rate of reaction & to quickly attain equilibrium.For eg as iron oxide mixed with small amounts of K2O and Al2O3 can be used as catalyst.
4 N2 & H2 gases should be pure in nature to increase the yield of ammonia.

When low temperature favours the yield of ammonia why is it so high temperature of 700k is required in haber's process
If Low temperature is favourable then why are we keeping the temperature at 723K It should be like 273-278K
