mass percent=mass elementtotal mass of compound×100%For the percent by mass N, we’re going to rewrite the equation as:[readmore]A. (NH4)H2PO4molar mass of N → 14.01 g/molmolar mass of (NH4)H2PO4 → 115.03 g/mol% mass N=mass Nmass of (NH4)H2PO4×100%% mass N=14.01 gmol115.03 gmol×100%% mass N=0.1218×100%  % mass N = 12.18 %B. (NH4)2SO4molar mass of N → 28.02 g/molmolar mass of (NH4)2SO4 → 132.14 g/mol% mass N=mass Nmass of (NH4)2SO4×100%% mass N=28.02 gmol132.14 gmol×100%% mass N=0.2120×100%  % mass N = 21.20 %C. (NH4)2HPO4molar mass of N → 28.02 g/molmolar mass of (NH4)2HPO4 → 132.06 g/mol% mass N=mass Nmass of (NH4)2SO4×100%% mass N=28.02 gmol132.06 gmol×100%% mass N=0.2122×100%  % mass N = 21.22 %D. KNO3molar mass of N → 14.01 g/molmolar mass of KNO3 → 101.1032 g/mol% mass N=mass Nmass of KNO3×100%% mass N=14.01 gmol101.1032 gmol×100%% mass N=0.1386×100%  % mass N = 13.86 %E. NH4NO3molar mass of N → 28.02 g/molmolar mass of NH4NO3 → 80.043 g/mol% mass N=mass Nmass of NH4NO3×100%% mass N=28.02 gmol80.043 gmol×100%% mass N=0.3501×100%  % mass N = 35.01 %E. NH3molar mass of N → 28.02 g/molmolar mass of NH3 → 17.031 g/mol% mass N=mass Nmass of NH3×100%% mass N=14.01 gmol17.031 gmol×100%% mass N=0.8226×100%  % mass N = 82.26 %Thus, rank the following fertilizers in decreasing order of mass percentage of nitrogen:NH3 > NH4NO3 > KNO3 > (NH4)2HPO4 > (NH4)2SO4 > (NH4)H2PO4
