Which mechanism decreases time to reach equilibrium in Haber-Bosch process reactors?

A)Heterogeneous catalytic surface adsorption
B)Homogeneous catalytic bond formation
C)Increased reactant partial pressures
D)Adiabatic heat transfer improvement

💡 Explanation

Heterogeneous catalytic surface adsorption lowers activation energy, leading to a faster reaction to reach equilibrium because it provides an alternative reaction pathway, therefore gases adsorb better onto the iron catalyst rather than reacting spontaneously and slower.
