Answer 1

(3)

Explanation:

Haber’s process is used for the industrial manufacture of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen. Therefore, the Assertion (A) is true.

The catalyst used in Haber’s process is finely divided iron, usually with promoters such as molybdenum. Vanadium oxide or platinum is not used as the catalyst in Haber’s process. Therefore, the Reason (R) is false.

Hence, A is true and R is false.
