The Haber-Bosch process is a well-known industrial process used to convert dinitrogen gas into ammonia for use in fertilizers. The process involves the reaction of dinitrogen gas with hydrogen gas ( H_{2} ) over an iron catalyst at high temperature and pressure

Incorrect options

2) The Ostwald process: The Ostwald process is used to produce nitric acid from ammonia, not ammonia from dinitrogen gas.

3) The Claus process: The Claus process is used to recover sulfur from hydrogen sulfide gas and is not related to the production of ammonia from dinitrogen gas.

4) The Contact process: The Contact process is used to produce sulfuric acid, not ammonia from dinitrogen gas.
