9
New cards
How is the mixture separated to obtain ammonia
Fed into a condenser and the ammonia condenses into liquid ammonia
10
New cards
What 3 things need to be considered when evaluating the conditions used

11
New cards
What temperature is required to achieve a high percentage yield
Low
12
New cards
Why is a low temperature not used
As the rate of reaction would be too slow
13
New cards
