Answer : 3. "Hydrogen"
Explanation :

Answer: C) Hydrogen Explanation: 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.

Answer : 1. "dark surfaces"
Explanation :

Answer: A) dark surfaces Explanation: Albedo refers to a material's ability to reflect sunlight. Since 30% of the sun's energy is reflected by the entire earth, the earth has an average albedo of 0.30. Generally, dark surfaces have a low albedo and light surfaces have a high albedo.

Answer : 4. "35"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 35 Explanation: Given S = 17 yrs A = 16 yrs B = 12 yrs Average = 17 + 16 + 12/3 = 15 yrs Given if Aslam added to them, their average increases by 5 => Average of 4 members = 20 Let the age of Aslam be 'x' Then,  17 + 16 + 12 + x /4 = 20 => x = 80 - 45 => x = 35.    Hence, the age of Aslam is 35 yrs.

Answer : 1. "Improve your breaking stability"
Explanation :

Answer: A) Improve your breaking stability Explanation: An anti-lock braking system (ABS) is a safety anti-skid braking system used on aircraft and on land vehicles , such as cars, motorcycles, trucks and buses.   ABS is only on the front wheels and it can improve your ability and the stability of your car by keeping the front wheels from locking under severe braking it will allow the wheels to continue to roll so the car can stop straight and stop as safe and as soon as possible
