Ammonium sulfate, \((NH_4)_2SO_4\), is a fertilizer used to supply both nitrogen and sulfur. How many grams of ammonium sulfate are in 35.8 moles of \((NH_4)_2SO_4\)?

\[ = \_ \, \text{g} \, (NH_4)_2SO_4 \]

Answer :

Answer:

4725.6 g of (NH4)2SO4

Explanation:

Molar mass of a substance is the number of mass of the substance contained in one mole of the substance. It is also called the formula weight of the compound. The formula mass of (NH4)2SO4 is 132 g/mol Hence;

Now we know that;

1 mole of (NH4)2SO4 contains 132 g of (NH4)2SO4

35.8 moles of (NH4)2SO4 contains 35.8 * 132/1

= 4725.6 g of (NH4)2SO4
