AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem of how gypsum is used for the conversion of ammonia into ammonium sulfate without using sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Reactants Gypsum is chemically known as calcium sulfate dihydrate (CaSO₄·2H₂O). When it reacts with ammonia (NH₃), it can produce ammonium sulfate ((NH₄)₂SO₄) and calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) in the presence of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O). ### Step 2: Write the Unbalanced Chemical Equation The unbalanced chemical reaction can be written as: \[ \text{NH}_3 + \text{CaSO}_4 + \text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{(NH}_4\text{)}_2\text{SO}_4 + \text{CaCO}_3 \] ...
