Question

Copy and complete the following table relating to important industrial processes. Output refers to the product of the process, not the intermediate steps.

Name of process	Inputs	Catalyst	Equation for catalytic reaction	Output
Haber process	Hydrogen + ______
	Ammonia + Air			Nitric acid
Contact process	Sulphur dioxide + oxygen

Answer 1

Name of process	Inputs	Catalyst	Equation for catalytic reaction	Output
Haber process	Hydrogen + Nitrogen	Iron	\[\ce{Na2(g) + 3H2 ⇌[Fe, Al2O3] 2NH3(g)}\]	Ammonia
Ostwald process	Ammonia + Air	Platinum	\[\ce{4NH3 + 5O2 ->[Platinum gauge][800°C] 4NO + 6H2O + Heat}\]	Nitric acid
Contact process	Sulphur dioxide + oxygen	Vanadium pentoxide	\[\ce{2SO2 + O2 <=>[450^\circ C][V2O5/K2O] 2SO3}\]	Sulphuric acid
