The Haber process and the use of NPK fertilisers
Question
- A. Nitrogen
- B. Ammonia
- C. Phosphate
- D. Potassium
Answer
The correct option is Ammonia. This answer is correct because it matches the approved learning objective to recall methane or natural gas and steam as a source of hydrogen for the Haber process. (Chemistry only) in the subtopic The Haber process.
Explanation
The correct option is Ammonia. Ammonia is correct because it directly supports the approved learning objective to recall methane or natural gas and steam as a source of hydrogen for the Haber process. (Chemistry only). This belongs to the subtopic The Haber process within The Haber process and the use of NPK fertilisers, so the explanation must stay tied to that curriculum context. The other options are incorrect because they either do not answer this learning objective, use a vague statement, or move away from The Haber process.
Common mistake
Source of Hydrogen in Haber Process
Students often confuse methane with hydrogen as the direct source of hydrogen in the Haber process.
Remember that methane (natural gas) is converted to hydrogen through a reaction with steam, rather than being used directly.
