The place which is designated as 0 degrees longitude is Greenwich, England.

In chemistry rusting is called as oxidation. Oxidation is a chemical process where metal gains oxygen and become oxide. In rusting the Iron ore make a chemical reaction with the oxygen in the presence of water and environmental or atmospheric moisture to produce an Iron oxide. Iron oxide is otherwise called as rust.

The rusting of iron is a chemical change because it is two substances reacting together to make a new substance. 

Rusting would only be a physical change if iron molecules remained pure iron throughout the process.

Blood is a heterogeneous mixture because the blood cells are physically separate from the blood plasma. The cells have different properties than the plasma. The cells can be separated from the plasma by centrifuging, which is a physical change.

A:B = 200 : 169
A:C = 200 : 182
 CB = CA×AB 

182200×200169

=> 182:169

When C covers 182 m , B Covers 169 m
When C covers 350 m , B Covers 169182×350
=> 325 m

So C beats B by (350 - 325) = 25 m.

Given total number of students = 80

Total teachers = 5

Number of coupons each student got = 15 x 80/100 = 12

Number of coupons each teacher got = 25 x 80/100 = 20

Therefore, total number of shopping coupons = 80 x 12 + 5 x 20 = 960 + 100 = 1060.

Active voice is used when the subject performs the action stated by the verb.

Given equation  5x-17 = -x+7

Add 1x to each side of the equation

5x-17+x = -x+7+x

6x=24

x=4

The name given to the bond between water molecules is a hydrogen bond. These bonds occur between the slightly negative oxygen of one water molecule and the slightly positive hydrogen of another water molecule. Hydrogen bonding gives water special physical properties.

The differences in electronegativity between hydrogen and oxygen lead to an unequal sharing of electrons. Electronegativity measures how strongly an atom attracts electrons. Oxygen, with its higher electronegativity, pulls on the shared electrons more, giving the oxygen atom a partial net negative charge. The shared electrons spend less time with the hydrogen atoms; therefore, the hydrogen regions of water have partial positive charges.
