Ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) is one of the most important nitrogen-containing fertilizers. Its purity can be analyzed by titrating a solution of NH4NO3 with a standard NaOH solution. In one experiment a 0.2061−g sample of industrially prepared NH4NO3 required 23.49 mL of 0.1083 M NaOH for neutralization. (a) Enter a net ionic equation for the reaction (include states of matter). (b) What is the percent purity of the sample? %
