The formula mass of ammonium sulphate is 132 u.
Ammonium sulphate, whose chemical formula (NH4)2SO4 is an inorganic salt that has several industrial applications. The most typical usage is as a fertiliser for the soil. It has 24% sulphur and 21% nitrogen. The formula mass of ammonium sulphate (NH4)2SO4  = Atomic mass of 2 nitrogen atoms + Atomic masses of 8 hydrogen atoms + Atomic mass of 1 sulphur atom +  Atomic masses of 4 oxygen atoms
2 × 14 + 8 × 1 + 1 × 32 + 4 × 16  28 + 8 + 32 + 64
132 u
Thus, the formula mass of ammonium sulphate (NH4)2SO4  is 132 u.
