Ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3\text{NH}_4\text{NO}_3NH4​NO3​, is a common fertiliser.

It is made by reacting ammonia, NH3\text{NH}_3NH3​, with nitric acid, HNO3\text{HNO}_3HNO3​: NH3+HNO3→NH4NO3\text{NH}_3 + \text{HNO}_3 \rightarrow \text{NH}_4\text{NO}_3NH3​+HNO3​→NH4​NO3​

Calculate the mass of ammonium nitrate that can be made from 225 tonnes225\text{ tonnes}225 tonnes of nitric acid.

Give your answer to 3 significant figures.

(The relative atomic masses, ArA_{\text{r}}Ar​, are: H=1.0\text{H} = 1.0H=1.0, N=14.0\text{N} = 14.0N=14.0, O=16.0\text{O} = 16.0O=16.0.)
