Some Reversible Reactions

Reversible and Irreversible Reactions


Sample

why is air not used as raw material during haber process

  • air is a mixture of many gases like oxygen and nitrogen.
  • hjence oxygen can reactr with hydrogen to form water if air is used during haber process
  • nitrogen reacts with oxygen to form oxides of nitrogen
  • air contains oxygen which oxidises iron catalyst to iron(II)oxide or iron(III)oxide
  • iron react with oxygen and water and rusting occurs
