The answer is 16?! How is it 16? I got 8. Please help this noob out.

Here's what I did:

Molecular mass of NH4:

14 + 1(4)

= 18 grams

In 18 grams of NH4, there's 4 moles of H.

36/18 = 2

36 grams is double 18, so double the moles of H.

4(2) = 8

In 36 grams of NH4, there's 8 moles of H.

Apparently it's 16? Am I going nuts, or what?
