The same analysis should be done for the landform.After providing a description of the body of water, include some other amenities that this destination offers for tourists, such as interesting cuisine, other attractions, and accommodations. Give the customer several options on how he or she can travel to the two destinations from your community.

(AP CHEMISTRY) Please help me answer these questions, I would appreciate it:1. Given the reaction: 2 NOF(g) 2 NO(g) + F2(g) at a certain temperature the value for KP is 1200. What will happen to the value for Q if the volume was doubled? Which way will the reaction shift to reach equilibrium? If it were to increase/decrease, by how much?2. The reaction: 2NO2(g) N2O4(g) is an exothermic reaction, H=-58. 0 kJ/molrxn at 0C the KP is 58. a) Use an ICE table to find the equilibrium pressures. 3. Consider the reaction A(g) 2B(g) + C(g), K = 2. 12 x 10-2. The reaction is at equilibrium at in a 1. 00 L container. The reaction is then placed into a container that has half the volume. How will Q relate to K? Which direction will the reaction proceed to reach equilibrium? If K is greater/ lesser, by how much is it so?

PLEASE HELP!!! Can you explain which type of policy the question is?Imagine that space tourism is beginning to expand as an industry. Whereas a ride aboard a spacecraft was only a prospect for the ultra-rich before, now the price of such an adventure is starting to fall within the means of middle-class Americans. When one company's rocket explodes after takeoff, however, the public outcry leads the U.S. president to push for a bill that, if passed in Congress, would set strict safety standards on spacecraft.By the time the legislation is written, it is clear to experts that many of the standards are ill-informed or part of a thinly veiled scheme by the engineering lobby to force space tourism companies to hire additional engineers to serve as inspectors. Meeting the demands of the new law will be extremely expensive for the emerging space tourism industry.1. Identify which term best describes the president's policy in this scenario: distributive, redistributive, or regulatory. Then describe what actions the president might take if he or she had pursued one of the other two types of policies instead.
