Ammonium Nitrate!


Is this equation correct?

NaHSO4 + NaNO3 + NH4OH = Na2SO4 + NH4NO3 + H2O

If i would allow this to dry out would it then be ammonium nitrate and Sodium sulfate in the end?


Thanks for the help!

Possibly, if you get the ratios right but to what end? Check the solubilities of ammonium nitrate, ammonium sulphate, sodium nitrate and sodium sulphate to see what will crystallise out first and which later. Your obtained solution would really be a mixture of water with dissolved Na+, NH4+ cations and SO42- and NO3- anions, nothing more.
