I wasn't given the equation. It's okay...thanks anyway. :)

Wait, wouldn't it be Zn+HNO3 ===> ZN(NO3)+NH4NO3+H2O

You need the balanced equation, otherwise you just can't do this.

It is not a very easy one to work out. Are you sure you weren't told it?

maybe i'm reading it incorrectly, but i'm fairly sure this is wrong, it seems to be a combination of two reactions, there is an infinite number of ways to balance it. and i see you wrote the equation out, but you haven't balanced it. if you can do that, the actual stoichiometry is fairly straightfoward.
