A catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy without itself being consumed by the reaction.
It was named the Qumran seas scrolls.
ideal gas law. but you are talking about moles of gas not miles
A flood, if it hits the environment of the natural rubbers, would destroy how the rubber is being produced. to have a large amount of limitation, the flood would destroy a large percentage of rubber trees. This natural rubber is needed to make synthetic polymers. Without the rubber (because of damages to it's ecosystem through the flood), there would be a limited supply, and a substancial drop on synthetic polymers.
hope this helps
