How do I solve these questions? (please show work and provideanswers)Fertilizers show the different percentage of components in the fertilizer by printing

Fertilizers show the different percentage of components in the fertilizer by printing a NPK rating on the bag. This strands for nitrogen - phosphorus - potassium. A rating of 13 - 10 - 10 contains 13% nitrogen by mass, 10% phosphorus (actually PO), and 10% potassium (actually KO) by mass. A fertilizer company made a fertilizer claiming a rating 15 -0 -0. The nitrogen was contained as ammonium sulfate ((NH4)SO). 9. Calculate the concentration of the (NH4)SO4 solution: LESCO TURF FERTILIZER 10. How many moles of SO4 are in 50 mL of the (NH)SO solution? 15-5-10 A student tested the percentage of N in the fertilizer by dissolving 100 grams of fertilizer in 1 L of distilled water. 50 mL of the solution was then reacted with an excess of 1 mol/L barium chloride (BaCl2) solution. The equation for the reaction is: BaCl(20) + (NH4)SO4(30) BaSO4(s) + 2 NHCl (30) The solid barium sulfate was then filtered, dried and weighed. Its mass was 6.5 grams. 8. Calculate the mass of (NH4)SO4 in 100 grams of fertilizer: LESO 11. What mass of BaSO4 would be expected to be produced in the reaction? 12. Was the fertilizer company correct in saying its fertilizer contained 15%N? Give reasons for your answer:
