Explanation:
The given data for case (1) is as follows.
h = 20 cm = 0.2 m
Assuming that a rectangular slab is placed above the pipe and we will calculate the heat transfer as follows.
Q =
where, A = area
L = length
k = thermal conductivity = 0.8 W/m
= change in temperature.
Therefore, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.
Q =
=
= 168 W
For case (2), h = 180 cm = 1.8 m
Therefore, heat lost will be calculated as follows.
Q =
=
= 18.67 W
Thus, we can conclude that 18.67 W heat lost if the pipe was buried at a depth of 180 cm.
The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and
nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:
C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22
H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25
N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22
Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:
C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1
H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5
N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1
So the empirical formula is:
CHN
Unlikely. It's unlikely for ammonium ion
to accept a proton
and act as a Bronsted-Lowry Acid.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
What's the definition of Bronsted-Lowry acids and bases?
- Bronsted-Lowry Acid: a species that can donate one or more protons
in a reaction.
- Bronsted-Lowry Base: a species that can accept one or more protons

Ammonium ions
are positive. Protons
are also positive.
Positive charges repel each other, which means that it will be difficult for
to accept any additional protons. As a result, it's unlikely that
will accept <em>any</em> proton and act like a Bronsted-Lowry Base.
