The reaction between ammonium sulfate and calcium hydroxide is given below.
(NH₄)₂SO₄ + Ca(OH)₂ --> 2NH₃ + CaSO₄ + 2H₂O
From the balance equation, we can conclude that every 74 g of calcium sulfate reacted with enough amount of ammonium sulfate will yield 34 grams of ammonia. From the given amount,
(20 g calcium sulfate) x (34 grams ammonia / 74 g calcium sulfate)
= <em>9.19 g ammonia</em>
<span>the molar mass of a compound is the sum of the products of the atomic masses by the number of atoms of the element.
molar mass of Na</span>₂SO₄<span> is - 142 g/mol.
1 mol of </span>Na₂SO₄<span> has a mass of 142 g.
In 1 mol of </span>Na₂SO₄<span> the mass of Na is 23 g/mol x 2 = 46 g.
Mass of Na in 1 mol of </span>Na₂SO₄ is - 46 g
mass of Na in 0.820 mol of Na₂SO₄ - 46 g /1 mol x 0.820 mol = 37.72 g.
mass of Na is 37.72 g
Look to be honest, I don't know how to work out the problem, but my teacher, and my says it takes 8 minutes for the Sun's light to reach
hope my answer works :)
