The first thing we need to do here is to recognize the unit of molarity and the units of the given percentage of nitric acid.
Molarity is mol HNO3 / L of solution. This is our aim
The given percentage is 0.68 g HNO3/ g solution
multiplying this with density to convert g solution into mL solution and dividing with the molecular weight of HNO3 (63 g/mol) to convert g HNO3 to mol. Therefore we obtain
0.016 mol/ mL or 16.23 mol/ L (M)
The difference between the wattage is 60-18=42W. The saving in energy over 10 hrs is 10×42=420 watt-hours=0.42kWh
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
