Benzene and toluene form an ideal solution. At 25 oC, the vapor pressure of pure benzene is 100 torr, and the vapor pressure of pure toluene is 30.0 torr. A solution is prepared of 1.0 mol benzene and 2.0 mol toluene. Some of the solution evaporates in a closed system. What is the mole fraction of benzene in the vapor?
A. 0.33
B. 0.43
C. 0.53
D. 0.63
E. 0.73

Draw the return-risk relationship and discuss this relationship of possible investments to the two assets below
Note: You should analyze different cases of correlation (for example: -1, -0.5, 0, 0.5, 1) between the two assets
Risk-Free rate: 1.0%
Asset 1: Expected return 2.0%; Standard deviation 9.0%
Asset 2: Expected return 1.2%; Standard deviation 6.0%

Estimate the number of Solar neutrinos passing through a detector on the Earth in one second. Assume that the detector has a surface area of 1.0 square meters and is aligned so that it faces directly towards the centre of the Sun. Assume that every neutrino travels without any change (i.e. none are absorbed or converted to a different particle). Also assume that the energy carried out of the Sun by the neutrinos is negligible

A laser puts out 4.4 W of continuous power at a wavelength of
532 nm. The diameter of the laser beam is 5.1 mm
If the laser is pointed toward a pinhole with a diameter of 1.0 mm,
how many photons travel through the pinhole per second? Assume that
the light intensity is equally distributed throughout the entire
cross-divisional area of the beam. (1 W = 1 J/s)

Your retirement fund consists of a $7,500 investment in each of 20 different common stocks. The portfolio's beta is 1.95. Now, suppose you sell one of the stocks with a beta of 1.0 for $7,500 and use the proceeds to buy another stock whose beta is 2.05. Calculate your portfolio's new beta. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
