How to calculate the anhydrous ammonia, from Kg to normal cubic metre in the gas state?

Presumably, you use the Ideal Gas Law....

Explanation:

Ammonia is a room temperature gas...and while its behaviour substantially departs from ideality, we may use the old Ideal Gas equation...

And we could specify a volume of 1*m^3, a pressure of 1*atm, and a temperature of 298*K...

n=(PV)/(RT)=(1*atmxx1*m^3xx1000*L*m^-3)/(0.0821*(L*atm)/(K*mol)xx298*K)=40.9*mol...

And this represents a mass of 40.9*molxx17.03*g*mol^-1=695*g

You could work on the question, if the answer is unsatisfactory...
