Atomic mass is found by adding the number of protons and neutrons together. The atomic number tells you how many protons an element has. 
So since this element has 10 protons and an atomic mass of 20, there are 10 neutrons in this element.

Hg(No3)2  +NaSO4   --->2NaNO3  +  HgSO4(s)
calculate  the moles  of   each  reactant
moles=mass/molar  mass

moles of  Hg(NO3)2=  51.429g/  324.6  g/mol(molar  mass  of  Hg(NO3)2)=0.158  moles

moles Na2SO4  16.642g/142g/mol=  0.117  moles  of  Na2SO4

Na2SO4  is  the  limiting  reagent in  the   equation   and  by  use  mole  ratio  Na2So4  to  HgSO4  is  1:1   therefore  the  moles  of  HgSO4  =0.117  moles

mass  of  HgSO4=moles  x  molar   mass  of  HgSo4=  0.117 g x  303.6g/mol=  35.5212  grams
