Here is your ans-
It is called Haber process.And the catalyst is slightly more complicated than pure Iron.Potassium hydroxide is added to it as a promoter.
The catalyst has no effect on the position of equilibrium.Adding a catalyst does not produce any greater percentage of ammonia in the mixture.It is only added to speed up the reaction.

Answer:

Diagram of active surface of iron catalyst for ammonia synthesis promoted by potassium oxide [59]. The surface of iron crystallites is covered by a layer of promoters and oxygen in such a way that over iron atoms there is a layer containing oxygen atoms. Atoms of promoters are to be found over this very layer.
