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.
Answer:
The pH is equal to 4.41
Explanation:
Since HClO is a weak acid, its dissociation in aqueous medium is:
HClO ⇄ ClO- + H+
start: 0.05 0 0
change -x +x +x
balance 0.05-x x x
As it is a weak acid it dissociates very little, in its ClO- and H + ions, so the change is negative, where x is a degree of dissociation.
the acidity constant when equilibrium is reached is equal to:
![Ka=\frac{[ClO-]*[H+]}{[HClO]}=\frac{x*x}{0.05-x}=3x10^{-8}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Ka%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BClO-%5D%2A%5BH%2B%5D%7D%7B%5BHClO%5D%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7Bx%2Ax%7D%7B0.05-x%7D%3D3x10%5E%7B-8%7D)
The 0.05-x fraction can be approximated to 0.05, because the ionized fraction (x) is very small, therefore we have:

clearing the x and calculating its value we have:
![x=3.87x10^{-5}=[H+]=[ClO-]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D3.87x10%5E%7B-5%7D%3D%5BH%2B%5D%3D%5BClO-%5D)
the pH can be calculated by:
![pH=-log[H+]=-log[3.87x10^{-5}]=4.41](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-log%5BH%2B%5D%3D-log%5B3.87x10%5E%7B-5%7D%5D%3D4.41)
The rate constant of the reaction K we can get it from this formula:
K=㏑2/ t1/2 and when we have this given (missing in question):
that we have one jar is labeled t = 0 S and has 16 yellow spheres inside and the jar beside it labeled t= 10 and has 8 yellow spheres and 8 blue spheres and the yellow spheres represent the reactants A and the blue represent the products B
So when after 10 s and we were having 16 yellow spheres as reactants and becomes 8 yellow and 8 blue spheres as products so it decays to the half amount so we can consider T1/2 = 10 s
a) by substitution in K formula:
∴ K = ㏑2 / 10 = 0.069
The amount of A (the reactants) after N half lives = Ao / 2^n
b) so no.of yellow spheres after 20 s (2 half-lives) = 16/2^2 = 4
and the blue spheres = Ao - no.of yellow spheres left = 16 - 4 = 12
c) The no.of yellow spheres after 30 s (3 half-lives) = 16/2^3 = 2
and the blue spheres = 16 - 2 = 14
