8 0
The oxidation state of a substance is the electric charge it is exhibiting in a given state. This may be determined by looking at the oxidation states of accompanying atoms as well as the charge on the complete molecule.

In this case:

Molecular charge: 0
Oxidation state of oxygen: -2 (it is a group 6 element)

Thus,

S + 3 * -2 = 0
S = 6

Sulfur is exhibiting an oxidation state of +6.

amm1812
The answer is A. planning a hiking trip

A topographical map would not help studying plant growth over time unless you are looking for a better altitude to plant said plants.

A topographical map would not help studying rainfall for one year unless your location was <em>really</em> so high or low that it affected your weather

And most of all, a topographical map would not be useful for planning a cuise across the Atlantic Ocean because the elevation of the sea is zero!

A topographical map <em>would</em> be useful for planning a hiking trip because there are many factors and details that a hike should have. Which includes height, distance, paths, and elevation.

meriva

4,410 kJ

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Enegry (GPE) is calculated as;

GPE = <em>m*g*h</em>                           where;

m = mass (kg)

g = gravity (m/s²)

h = height (meters)

= 90 * 9.8 * 5000

= 4,410,000‬ joules

= 4,410 kJ
