When the temperature is decreased, the reverse reaction (in this case, the decomposition of ammonia into nitrogen and hydrogen) is favored because it is an exothermic reaction. In response to the increased reverse reaction, the forward reaction (formation of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen) increases to re-establish equilibrium, ultimately leading to a higher yield of ammonia.

Does temperature affect the production of ammonia from ammonia chloride?

Yes, temperature can affect the production of ammonia from ammonium chloride. Generally, higher temperatures can increase the rate of the reaction, leading to more ammonia production. However, excessively high temperatures can also cause decomposition of ammonia.

You make ammonia in a factory and a large order just arrived. To increase your rate of production or rate of the reaction to produce ammonia you can do what?

The most effective way is to increase the pressure. You will already be using a catalyst, and increasing the temperature will increase the rate, but slow down the achievement of equilibrium so will not solve your problem.


Why is a low temperature not used in the haber process?

A low temperature is not used in the Haber process because the reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen to form ammonia is an exothermic reaction, meaning it releases heat. Using a higher temperature allows for a higher reaction rate, but temperatures that are too high can lead to decreased ammonia yield due to the reverse reaction occurring.


What is the thermal expansion coefficient of ammonia?

The thermal expansion coefficient of ammonia is approximately 0.0045 K^-1 at 20 degrees Celsius. This coefficient represents how much the volume of ammonia will expand per degree of temperature increase.
