Solution:

The reaction by which ammonium cyanate is converted to urea is known as Wohler synthesis.

This reaction takes place in two steps.

In the first step ammonium cyanate decomposes into ammonia and cyanic acid.

NH_4CNO   \        \rightarrow             NH_3 + HOCN\\

In the second step the ammonia and cyanic acid reacts reversibly to form urea.

NH_3 + HOCN \rightleftharpoons (NH_2)_2CO\\
