What are the applications of Le Chatelier’s principle in industrial processes?
Applications: 1. Haber Process (Ammonia Production): To increase ammonia production: Increase pressure (favors fewer gas molecules). Decrease temperature (favors the exothermic reaction). Remove ammonia as it forms (shifts equilibrium to the right). 2. Contact Process (Sulfuric Acid Production): High pressure and low temperature favor the formation of sulfuric acid . 3. Production of Methanol: High … Read more
