These problems are a bit interesting. :)

First let's write the molecular formula for ammonium carbonate. 

NH4CO3 (Note! The 4 and 3 are subscripts, and not coefficients)

17.6 gNH4CO3

Now to convert to mol of one of our substances we take the percent composition of that particular part of the molecule and multiply it by our starting mass. This is what it looks like using dimensional analyse. 

17.6 gNH4CO3 * (Molar Mass of NH4 / Molar Mass of NH4CO3)

Grab a periodic table (or look one up) and find the molar masses for these molecules! Well. In this case I'll do it for you. (Note: I round the molar masses off to two decimal places)

NH4 = 14.01 + 4*1.01 = 18.05 g/mol
NH4CO3 = 14.01 + 4*1.01 + 12.01 + 3*16.00 = 78.06 g/mol


17.6 gNH4CO3 * (18.05 molNH4 / 78.06 molNH4CO3)
= 4.07 gNH4

Now just take the molar mass we found to convert that amount into moles!

4.07 gNH4 * (1 molNH4 / 18.05 gNH4) = 0.225 molNH4

Which sentence describes an example of sublimation?
Strike441 [17]
<span>An example of sublimation is when a dry ice changes to carbon dioxide when kept in an open container. Sublimation is a change from solid phase to gas phase without passing through the liquid state. In this example, it is clear that the dry ice is solid form and it evaporates as gas without passing through the liquid state.</span>

What is the mass, in grams, of 1.4 mol W
algol [13]
Atomic mass W = 183.84 u.m.a

1 mole --------- 183.84
1.4 moles ---- ?

1.4 x 183.84 / 1 = 257.376 g

hope this helps!
