The triple bond between the nitrogen atoms in nitrogen gas is very strong.it takes nearly a megajoule of energy to break apart one mole of nitrogen gas, This makes nitrogen very nearly inert at normal temperatures and pressures.

How is activation energy related to bond energy?
If the bond dissociation energy for reactants is high then activation energy required for the reaction also will be high.
You may normally expect a slow reaction if a low activation energy is required?
Explain why a high energy of activation causes a reaction to be slow?
Why is the activation energy of an endothermic reaction is at least as large as its enthalpy?
In an endothermic reaction the energy of the products is higher than the energy of the reactants. The activation energy also is an energy increase. The activation energy must be at least as high as the products energy or the reaction would never take place. Thus, the activation energy must be at least as large as the enthalpy in an endothermic reaction.
How is ammonia liquified?
Ammonia is made by haber process. We can turn it to liquid by high pressure and low temperature.
How do you generate enough pressure to make ammonia?
We make ammonia by haber process. There must be a high pressure.

Does endothermic have high or low activation energy?
An endothermic reaction would not necessarily have either a high or low activation energy; it could be either and would depend on the reactants. Also, the activation energy alone does not determine if a reaction is endothermic or exothermic; a low or high activation energy could be part of an endothermic or exothermic reaction, again depending on the reactants.

What does it mean if the activation energy is high related to traveling?
If the activation energy elated to travelling is high, then a large amount of energy is required to start a chemical reaction. After the reaction is initiated, less energy is needed.
Why is the haber process not run at a high pressure?
because in this process a mixture of nitrogen and hydrogen is heated at 400 to 450c
What does N2 H2 form?
The most common product of the reaction is ammonia, NH3, but it is a uncommon reaction in nature, but this one of the most produced chemical in the world (for fertilizer).Equation:N2 + 3H2 ---> 2NH3This reaction is uncommon in nature because it can only form under the Haber-Bosch Process, which require a large activation energy, high pressure, and a catalyst.
Why do biological reactions have a high activation energy and Why?
Because ATP
