Question
Ammonium sulfate, an important chemical fertilizer, can be prepared by the reaction of ammonia with sulfuric acid according to the following balanced equation:
2 NH3(g) + H2SO4(aq) → (NH4)2SO4(aq)
If a reaction vessel has 4.56 L of NH3 at 32.3°C and 20.8 atm, how many grams of H2SO4 are needed to completely react with it?
_________________ g H2SO4. Do NOT enter unit. Report your final answer with 3 SFs.
SO... I did my work on paper and the answer I got was 2900. Please let me know if i got the answer right.

No, I didn't get that number. If you will post your work I will find the error.
Remember T must be in kelvin. First find n for moles NH3 from PV = nRT, convert that to moles H2SO4, then convert to grams H2SO4.
