← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when inlet gas temperature fluctuates during Haber-Bosch?
A)Catalyst surface area decreases rapidly
B)Ammonia production rate oscillates✓
C)Equilibrium shifts toward reactants
D)Reaction vessel pressure remains unchanged
💡 Explanation
Oscillating temperature will vary the forward and reverse reaction rates via the Arrhenius equation impacting the rate constants; therefore, ammonia production oscillates rather than reaching a stable equilibrium because diffusion limitations are constant.
