Osmium is a much better catalyst for the reaction but is very expensive.

Which process is iron used as catalyst?
The Haber process (making amonia using nitrogen and hydrogen).
What does a catalyst do in haber process?
It speeds up the reaction that produces ammonia.
Identify the metal used as the catalyst in the Haber process?
its Fe- iron. It is used as a catalyst to speed up the exothermic reaction between N2 and H2 to make NH3.
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.
Is a magnesium metal a catalyst?
Iron is one of the magnetic metal. It is used as a catalyst in Haber process to produce ammonia N2 + 3H2 ----------- 2NH3
What is used in the haber process?
its an iron catalyst (iron oxide)
Which element is used as a catalyst in the manufacture of margarine?
The elements in the middle section of the Periodic Table are the transition in the Haber process; Nickel is a catalyst used in the manufacture of margarine.
Which process is iron used as catalyst?
The Haber process (making amonia using nitrogen and hydrogen).
What does catalyst do in Haber processes?
It speeds up the reaction that produces ammonia.
What does a catalyst do in haber process?
It speeds up the reaction that produces ammonia.

What is the product of the Haber process used for?
The Haber process (also called the Haber-Bosch process) is the nitrogen fixation reaction of nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas over an enriched iron or ruthenium catalyst, which is used to produce ammonia. It's main use is in fertilizers, color compounds and N-polymers like nylon.N2 + 3H2 --> 2NH3(exothermic)
Is a magnesium metal a catalyst?
Iron is one of the magnetic metal. It is used as a catalyst in Haber process to produce ammonia N2 + 3H2 ----------- 2NH3
Describe what the habor procces does?
The Haber process is the reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to produce ammonia. An Iron Catalyst is used. The reaction is reversible, so is quite complicated to maintain.
Why does the iron catalyst in the haber process have such a long lifetime?
Catalysts aren't used up in their reaction, they just speed it up, so you can use it hundreds of times without replacing it.
Why is it necessary to remove CO when ammonia is obtained by Habers process?
It is important to remove CO in the synthesis of ammonia as CO adversely affects the activity of the iron catalyst, used in Haber's process.
