Fritz Haber (German: [ˈhaːbɐ]; 9 December 1868 – 29 Januar 1934) wis a German chemist wha received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1918 for his invention o the Haber–Bosch process, a method uised in industry tae synthesize ammonia frae nitrogen gas an hydrogen gas. This invention is o importance for the lairge-scale synthesis o fertilizers an explosives. The fuid production for hauf the warld's current population depends on this method for producin nitrogen fertilizers.^[1] Haber, alang wi Max Born, proponed the Born–Haber cycle as a method for evaluatin the lattice energy o an ionic solit.

Haber is an aa conseedered the "faither o chemical warfare" for his years o pioneerin wirk developin an wappenizin chlorine an ither poisonous gases during Warld War I, especially his actions during the Seicont Battle o Ypres.
