On a small scale ammonia is obtained from ammonium salts which decompose when treated with caustic soda or calcium hydroxide.

2 \mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{Cl}+\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_{2} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{NH}_{3}+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{CaCl}_{2}

\left(\mathrm{NH}_{4}\right)_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}+2 \mathrm{NaOH} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{NH}_{3}+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{Na}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}

Recovery of NH3

\begin{aligned}2 \mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{Cl}+\mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_{2}\longrightarrow & \mathrm{CaCl}_{2}+2 \mathrm{NH}_{3}+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\\ & \text { byproduct } \end{aligned}

Therefore, the Correct option is (2)
