The graph above shows the different yield percentage of ammonia through

a method called Haber process in relation to varying levels of pressure and


temperature. It can be observed that yield percentage of ammonia is directly
proportional to the increasing pressure introduced in to the reaction but inversely
proportional to the applied temperature. It can be noted that there are 4 moles of
gases present in the reactant side of the reaction and 2 moles on the product side
of the reaction. As pressure slowly increases, the position of equilibrium in the
reaction shifts further to the side with fewer molecules, creating ammonia. It can
also be seen that exothermic reaction is taking place based on the relations
between yield percentage and temperature applied to the reaction. It is
noticeable that yield percentage of ammonia increases as temperature decreases
which means that as temperature decreases within, it will shift to the right to
produce ammonia in order to counteract the change in temperature by producing
and thus relieving the stress within the reaction. It can be concluded that pressure
and temperature in a Haber reaction or process is inversely proportional to each
other in terms of its effects on yield percentage of ammonia.
