The reaction: N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃
is known as a synthesis reaction (or combination reaction).
Explanation:
- Synthesis Reaction: In this type of reaction, two or more reactants combine to form a single product. In this case, nitrogen gas (N2) and hydrogen gas (H2) combine to form ammonia (NH3).
- General Form: The general form of a synthesis reaction is: A+B→AB Here, nitrogen (N₂) and hydrogen (H2) are the reactants that combine to form ammonia (NH3), the product.
This reaction is also known as the Haber process, which is used industrially to synthesize ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen.
