In this video, I show the synthesis of ammonia from its elements hydrogen and nitrogen, also known as the Haber-Bosch process. The ammonia is then detected using Berthelot's reagent. As a catalyst, I use a mixture of fine iron powder and aluminum oxide. The yield in this experiment is very low. Industrial Haber-Bosch plants work under very high pressure and with better catalysts. Please like and share the video, subscribe, and consider to become a patreon.
