Though this is essentiallly a Committee of the House of the people (having 15 members from that house) , by an agreement between the two houses , 7 members from the other Houses are also associated with this Committee, in order to strengthen it.

C2H6O is a Non-electrolyte.

An electrolyte is a compound that conducts an electric current when it is in an aqueous solution or melted. In order to conduct a current, a substance must contain mobile ions that can move from one electrode to the other. All ionic compounds are electrolytes. When ionic compounds dissolve, they break apart into ions which are then able to conduct a current ( conductivity ). Even insoluble ionic compounds such as CaCO 3 are electrolytes because they can conduct a current in the molten (melted) state.

A nonelectrolyte is a compound that does not conduct an electric current in either aqueous solution or in the molten state. Many molecular compounds, such as sugar or ethanol, are nonelectrolytes. When these compounds dissolve in water, they do not produce ions.

Electrolytes are of 3 types ---- Strong Electrolytes, Weak Electrolytes and Non Electrolytes.

Strong Electrolytes ---- Compounds which completely dissolves. ( NaCl, Na2Co3, HCl )

Weak Electrolytes ----- Compounds which do not completely dissolves.

Non Electrolytes ------ Compounds which do not dissolves at all.

False. The ankle is not the third-class lever in the body.

Levers are typically labeled as first class, second class, or third class. All three types are found in the body, but most levers in the human body are third class.

First-class levers in the human body are rare and have the axis (fulcrum) located between the weight (resistance) and the force. One example is the joint between the head and the first vertebra.

In a second-class lever, the weight (resistance) is located between the axis (fulcrum) and the force. An example of a second-class lever in the human body is found in the lower leg when someone stands on tiptoes

In a third-class lever, the most common in the human body, force is applied between the resistance (weight) and the axis (fulcrum). There are numerous third-class levers in the human body; one example can be illustrated in the elbow joint.

The atmospheric pressure at the surface of the Earth is due to gravitational pull of the earth and is about 14.7 psi.

That means that the weight of a column of air which has a cross section of 1 square inch and which stretches from the surface of the Earth to space is 14.7 pounds. 

The azimuth originates at true North i.e, the azimuth originates from the north point. It is a measure of how far an object forms the observer's north point.

Azimuth is a technical mapping term which is used to describe the direction of an angle between north and south on a compass circle through which the circle line passes. It is the most common military method to express direction. When using an azimuth, the point from which the azimuth originates is the center of an imaginary circle.
