Answer to Question 1

No-fault grounds for divorce are grounds that do not require a party to prove that the other party is to blame for the breakdown of the marriage. As a result, no-fault divorces (particularly if uncontested) tend to be less costly both financially and emotionally. Marital misconduct is largely irrelevant. Each state establishes its own no-fault grounds or standards, and approximately forty percent of the states have eliminated fault grounds entirely and have only a single no-fault standard. The two most common no-fault grounds are: a) irreconcilable differences and b) living separate and apart.

Answer to Question 2

D

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

A good example of polar molecules can be understood when trying to make a cake. If water and oil are required, they will not mix together. If you put them into a measuring cup, the oil will rise to the top while the water remains on the bottom.
