    Formation of ammonia from\[{{H}_{2}}\]and\[{{N}_{3}}\]by Habeas process using Fe is an example of:

    A)  heterogeneous catalysis

    B)  homogeneous catalysis

    C)  enzyme catalysis

    D)  non-catalytic process

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    In heterogeneous catalysis the reactant and catalyst are in different phases. \[{{N}_{2}}(g)+3{{H}_{2}}(g)2N{{H}_{3}}(g)\] In the Habeas process the reactants are in gaseous phase while catalyst (Fe) in solid phase.  Hence, it is an example of heterogeneous catalysis.
