    The catalyst used in the manufacture of ammonia is

    A) \[{{V}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\]                                   

    B) \[Pt\]

    C) \[Fe\]                                   

    D) \[Ni{{(CO)}_{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    When nitrogen and hydrogen in the ratio of 1: 3 are mixed at high temperature (750 K) and 200 - 250 atm pressure and in the presence of Fe and Mo, ammonia is obtained. This process is called Habeas process. \[{{N}_{2}}(g)+3{{H}_{2}}(g)2N{{H}_{3}}(g)\] In this process finely divided iron (Fe) acts as catalyst and molybdenum (Mo) acts as catalyst promoter.
