Question 11
H

A student makes three statements about the Haber process, N2(g)+3H2(g)⇌2NH3(g)\mathrm{N_{2}(g) + 3H_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons 2NH_{3}(g)}N2​(g)+3H2​(g)⇌2NH3​(g), in which the forward reaction is exothermic.

Statement 1: raising the temperature shortens the time taken to reach equilibrium but lowers the equilibrium yield of ammonia

Statement 2: the iron catalyst speeds up the forward reaction more than the reverse reaction, so the equilibrium yield of ammonia increases

Statement 3: raising the pressure increases both the equilibrium yield of ammonia and the rate at which equilibrium is reached

Which statements are correct?
