Solution

Dear Student,
The equation for the above question will be,
(NH₄)₂SO₄ (aq)+ Ca(OH)₂ (s) → CaSO₄(s) + NH₃ (aq)+ H₂O (l)
Ca = 1 Ca = 1
N = 2 N = 1
H = 10 H = 5
S = 1 S = 1
O = 6 O = 5
so,Now we balance this according to the equation by equating the atoms both the side.
After balancing,the equation is:
(NH₄)₂SO₄ (aq) + Ca(OH)₂ (s) → CaSO₄ (s) + 2NH₃ (aq) + 2H₂O (l)
This is an acid base reaction. Ca(OH)₂ is a base,(NH₄)₂SO₄ is an acid.
Regards.
