Description

The Haber-Bosch process is the most important process for the production of ammonia. It was developed by the chemist Fritz Haber and the engineer Carl Bosch and was already being used in industrial scale operations in 1913.

Ammonia is synthesised here from molecular nitrogen and hydrogen. A catalyst is required in order to speed up the rate of reaction.

Experiment C5.1.1.2 uses the catalyst developed by Mittasch (iron powder, aluminium oxide, calcium oxide and potassium nitrate) in order to produce small quantities of ammonia even at normal pressure. The ammonia can be assayed using the base reaction on indicator paper.
