140 s. It would take 140 s to swim 0.150 mi .

<em>Step 1</em>. Convert the <em>time to seconds</em>

Time = 14 min × (60 s/1 min) + 34.56 s = 840 s + 34.56 s = 874.56 s

<em>Step 2</em>. Convert <em>miles to metres </em>

Distance = 0.150 mi × (1609.3 m/1 mi) = 241.4 m

<em>Step 3.</em> Calculate the <em>time to swim 241.4 m</em>

Time = 241.4 m × (874.56 s/1500 m) = 140 s

(<em>As of 2012, the men’s freestyle record for 1500 m was 14:31.02</em>.)

5 Facts about Geology
Bingel [31]
1-There are 18 volcanoes in the US with the potential to erupt again, all of them in Alaska, Hawaii and the West Coast states.

2-Rubies and sapphires are actually the same mineral - corundum. The basic chemical formula of corundum is Al2O3, but traces of iron stain the mineral red (ruby) while traces of chromium or titanium stain the mineral blue (sapphire).

3-Rubies, sapphires and emeralds are all more rare than diamonds.

4-Not all diamonds are transparent. They come in a variety of colors (called "fancies"), including yellow, green, blue, orange, brown ("champagne"), purple, grey, black (called carbanado, recently shown to be meteroic), milky white, pink, and red. Red is by far the rarest.

5-Antacids taste like chalk because they ARE chalk, a.k.a. calcium carbonate.

CHEMISTRY HELP<br> Once the following equation is balanced, what is the correct coefficient for Z₂?
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The coefficient of Z₂ is 1.

Explanation:

From the question given above:

X + ZY —> XY + Z₂

Next, we shall balance the equation to obtain the coefficient of Z₂. This can be obtained as follow:

X + ZY —> XY + Z₂

There is 1 atom of Z on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of ZY as shown below:

X + 2ZY —> XY + Z₂

There are 2 atoms of Y on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of XY as shown below:

X + 2ZY —> 2XY + Z₂

Now, we have 1 atom of X on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of X as shown below:

2X + 2ZY —> 2XY + Z₂

Now the equation is balanced.

Thus, the coefficient of Z₂ is 1.
