a) (NH4)2SO4 --- 1 mole of it contains 2 moles of N, 8 moles of H, 1 mole of S, and 4 moles of O.
MM = (2 moles N x 14.0 g/mole) + (8 moles H x 1.01 g/mole) + (1 mole S x 32.1 g/mole) + (4 moles O x 16.0 g/mole) = 132 g/mole.
6.60 g (NH4)2SO4 x (1 mole (NH4)2SO4 / 132 g (NH4)2SO4) = 0.0500 moles (NH4)2SO4
b) The molar mass for Ca(OH)2 = 74.0 g/mole, calculated like (NH4)2SO4 above.
4.5 kg Ca(OH)2 x (1000 g / 1 kg) x (1 mole Ca(OH)2 / 74.0 g Ca(OH)2) = 60.8 moles Ca(OH)2
The answer is c. number of protons and d. atomic number. The proton number can identify an element. And also the atomic number is equal to the number of protons.

Assuming that the ammonium sulfide formula is (NH4)2S then you can see that there are 2 nitrogen, 8 hydrogen and 2 sulfur atoms for every ammonium sulfide.
Hope that helps
I believe the answer is Na because it should be sodium which is Na.
