While the majority component of air is nitrogen (n2), the gas is very unreactive because of its stability due to the triple bonds that hold the nitrogen atoms together. nitrogen gas is, therefore, relatively unavailable for chemical reactions. one of the few ways to "fix" nitrogen, making a nitrogen compound from the elemental nitrogen in the atmosphere, is the haber process (aka haber-bosch process). in this reaction, nitrogen gas combines with hydrogen gas to yield ammonia. the enthalpy (ah) of this reaction is -92.22 kl. this process was discovered by the german chemist fritz haber in the early twentieth century. through extensive experimentation, haber found the conditions that would produce adequate yields (at a temperature of about 500°c and a pressure of about 200 atm). this process holds a significant importance today because of its application in the industrial production of ammonia-based fertilizer. in 1918, haber received the nobel prize in chemistry for his work. however, a lot of controversy followed the nobel prize award. for this experiment, 16.55 grams of nitrogen gas and 10.15 grams of hydrogen gas are allowed to react in the reaction vessel. the ammonia vapor that is produced is then condensed, liquefied, and collected into a collection vessel. compare and contrast the positive and negative effects that result from the use of the haber process. discuss the controversy that followed the awarding of the nobel prize in chemistry to haber. based on this discussion, do you think haber should have been awarded this prestigious award for his work? explain.

Haber deserve the Nobel prize award for his work on production of ammonia despite his short comings.

.

Explanation:The positive from Habers process for manufacture of ammonia includes ,a viable source for production of synthetic fertilizers which has help improve food production all over the world ,by estimation world population has been earmarked to reduce via starvation by geographers .

The production of nitric acid which also can be used to produce polymers like nylon,explosives like gunpowder,hareners in dye industry, treatment and purification of metals

The negativity include the burning of fossils which when incomplete produces carbon monoxide which is deplete ozone layer and greenhouse effect emmision .

Nitrates from sythetic fertilizers can pollute ground water,produce algae thereby damaging the aquatic system.

High energy require creates global heating.

The controversy that occur after the Nobel prize award was Habers role in the German war where he synthesis the poisonous chlorine gas which made fellow scientist felt he is evil and doesn't deserve an award

In my opinion he deserves the award for his role in manufacture of ammonia ,given that in war , everything is fair and he was only working in his capacity as a faithful citizen and giving that the government will have dealt decisively with him had he refused to work for the state.beyond all this his good works which still in use today outlive his short term bad deed.

the answer is prolly b
