Anchorage, Alaska is located at 149°53W. Alaska is -9 hours behind the UK. At noon in London, it would be 3am in Anchorage.
It would be "Noon".To be more precise it would be "local apparent solar Noon". That would probably not be exactly what a clock is showing, because of time zones and other factors.Local apparent solar noon is based on when the Sun reaches its maximum height above the horizon.It is rare for the Sunactually to be overhead at any particular place on Earth.
This is so that no matter where one is, the sun correlates with the time. Due to the time zones, the sun is generally overhead at noon, sets around 7-9, and rises around 6. If time zones did not exist, noon would mean different things to people all over the world.
no
This statement is false. Russia itself never covered 11 time zones. Only when the Soviet Union existed, then it was 11 zones. Currently Russia spans 9 time zones.
For the most part, time zones don't change north to south. It would still be noon.

It cannot according to the definition of "noon", but it can in some of the crazy time zones that some countries have.
That's the definition of local noon, everywhere. In "standard" time zones, near the middle.
Canada has multiple time zones. In Atlantic Canada, the time would be 1:30 PM In Eastern Canada, the time would be 12-1 PM In Central Canada, the time would be 11 AM. In Western Canada, the time would be 9-10 AM.

It would be very confusing. 12 o'clock AM would be noon in some places, morning in others, midnight in still others, and so on.

It is 5 30 in India and 12 noon in London because of the different time zones of the two.

They shouldn't because different time zones have the sun over them at a different times and some people would have 12 noon when it is dark out and others would have it at dawn. This would mess up our lives and make life far more complicated than dealing with time zones.
