Since, the options have not been given the question is incomplete.

What is Darwin's name for species that do not appear to have changed for millions of years?

a.

Dinosaurs

b.

Living fossils

c.

Old souls

d.

Ancient moderns

Answer: b. Living fossil

Explanation:

In 1859 Charles Darwin proposed the term living fossil, that means a species or group of species that had not changed in terms of evolutionary context thus can be useful in tracing the extinct or previously existing forms of life. The examples of the living fossils are horseshoe crabs, ginkgo (Conifers) and tuatara. These group of animals were existed unchanged in the Ordovician, Permian, and Triassic periods respectively with few surviving species.

One year ago, you sold a put option on 100,000 euros with an expiration date of 1 year. you received a premium on the put option

pochemuha

There are two problems for this question:1. What is the total dollar amount of your profit and loss:
Put option premium is equal to 0.04 per unit.
The exercise price is 1.22
One option contract is 100,000
Selling price is 1.20
-Purchase prise is - 1.22
-Premium paid is +0.04
Net profit is = 0.02 x 100,000 = 2,000 – 80 = 1,920

2. Now undertake that as an alternative of taking a position in the put option one year ago, you sold a future's contract on 100,000 euros with a payment date of one year.
Find the total dollar amount of your profit or loss.
Solution: Contract to buy: $1.20 x 100,000 = 120,000 at payment date.
Contract to sell: $1.22 x 100,000 = 122,000 at settlement date
Settle contracts: -2,000 - 80 = -$2,080

A chemistry student needs to standardize a fresh solution of sodium hydroxide. She carefully weighs out 385.mg of oxalic acid H2

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution is 0.0692 M

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of H2C2O4 = 385 mg = 0.385 grams

volume = 250 mL = 0.250 L

Volume of NaOH = 123.7 mL = 0.1237 L

Molar mass H2C2O4 = 90.03 g/mol

<u>Step 2</u>: The balanced equation

2NaOH + H2C2O4 → Na2C2O4 + 2H2O

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate moles H2C2O4

Moles H2C2O4 = mass H2C2O4 / molar mass H2C2O4

Moles H2C2O4 = 0.385 grams / 90.03 g/mol

Moles H2C2O4 = 0.00428 moles

<u>Step 4: </u>Calculate molarity of H2C2O4

Molarity H2C2O4 = moles / volume

Molarity H2C2O4 = 0.00428 moles / 0.250 L

Molarity H2C2O4 = 0.01712 M

<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate molarity of NaOH

2*Ca*Va = n*Cb*Vb

⇒ with Ca = Molarity of H2C2O4 = 0.01712 M

⇒ Va = volume of H2C2O4 = 0.250 L

⇒Cb = molarity of NaOH = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ Vb = volume of NaOH = 0.1237 L

Cb = (2*0.01712*0.250)/0.1237

Cb = 0.0691 M

The molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution is 0.0692 M

1)How can scientists use a seismograph to determine the density and depth of Earth's layers?

Masteriza [31]

Hello Olivia!!!

<span>Q.) Describe at least two geological events that can occur at a divergent boundary.
</span>
A.)Most active divergent plate boundaries occur between oceanic plates and exist as mid-oceanic ridges. Divergent boundaries also form volcanic islands which occur when the plates move apart to produce gaps which molten lava rises to fill.

Hope this can help!!!
