1.
3NH3 + H3PO4 >> (NH4)3PO4
MM = 149 g/mol
in 1 mole there are 3 N ( 14 x 3 = 42)
% = 42 x 100 / 149 = 28.2 %
2.
HNO3 (aq) + NH3 (g) >> NH4NO3 (aq)
MM = 80 g/mol
% = 28 x 100 / 80 = 35
3.
two reactions take place in the formation of urea from NH3 and CO2
a) 2 NH3 + CO2 >> H2NCOONH4 ( ammonium carbamate )
b) H2NCOONH4 >> (NH2)2CO
MM = 60 g/mol
% = 28 x 100 / 60 = 46.7
Urea is the most suitable

Well, Calcium = Ca with a charge of +2 Nitrate = NO3 with a charge of -1 Sodium = Na with a charge of +1 Phosphate = PO4 with a charge of -3 When putting them together, you have to balance the charges. Then, to find the product, know that it is a double replacement reaction. Final Equation: 3Ca(NO3)2 + 2Na3(PO4) ----> Ca3(PO4)2 + 6Na(NO3)

3 NH4OH + H3PO4 -> (NH4)3PO4 + 3 H2O
NH4OH + HNO3 -> NH4NO3 + H2O
NH4CNO -> NH2CONH2
Most suitable (long term) is urea.
