Question

N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(g), ΔH = -37.2 kj

Is this an endothermic/exothermic reaction?

Is heat a reactant/product?

Answer 1

This reaction is called the Haber process for the manufacture of ammonia.

The reaction is reversible and exothermic, that is, heat is liberated during the chemical reaction.

The heat liberated is a by-product of the reaction.

A catalyst is needed for the reaction.
