← ScienceWhich outcome limits the yield when synthesizing ammonia at standard pressure?
A)Equilibrium favors reactants, suppressing yield✓
B)Increased kinetic energy accelerates decomposition
C)Catalyst saturation reduces effective surface area
D)High temperature increases side product formation
💡 Explanation
A low temperature favors the products in the exothermic Haber-Bosch process, but the *low reaction rate* slows equilibrium; therefore lower temperature means rate limits the yield rather than high-temperature side reactions dominating.
