Why is a low temperature favorable for a high yield of ammonia in the ammonia production reaction?

Options

  1. ALow temperature speeds up the reaction.
  2. BLow temperature increases the equilibrium concentration of ammonia.
  3. CLow temperature is exothermic.
  4. DLow temperature slows down the reaction.

Correct answer

D. Low temperature slows down the reaction.

Step-by-step solution

Low temperature is favorable for a high yield of ammonia because it slows down the reaction and allows more ammonia to accumulate at equilibrium.
