This is a simple chem reaction. If you remeber in IGCSE you were thought ammonia plus HCl forms a white powder called Ammonium Chloride. This is the same thing except the final product is Ammonium Sulphate :)

hey thanks guys


i was confused for a second cause my teacher told me that alkalies plus acid make salt plus water.

and thats true

its just NH3 was an alkali and i forgot if it produced water with acid. As this is a neutralisation reaction.
