The polymerization of vinyl acetate with AIBN at 60˚C has the following characteristic rate constants: k p = 2.0 x 103 L mol-1 s-1 k t = 2.8 x 107 L mol-1 s-1 f⸳k d = 9.6 x 10-6 s-1 You set up two reaction vessels side by side. In the first vessel, you run bulk polymerization of vinyl acetate, and in the second vessel, you run solution polymerization of 1.0 mol L-1 vinyl acetate in benzene. In both cases, your total reactor volume is 100 mL and you use 0.1 g of AIBN as your initiator. You can ignore the volume that AIBN contributes to the reaction solution.

Use the following information to answer the question(s) below. Big Bend National Park in Texas is mostly Chihuahuan desert, where rainfall averages about 10 inches per year. Yet, it is not uncommon when hiking in this bone-dry desert to encounter mosses and ferns. One such plant is called "flower of stone." It is not a flowering plant, nor does it produce seeds. Under arid conditions, its leaflike structures curl up. However, when it rains, it unfurls its leaves, which form a bright green rosette on the desert floor. Consequently, it is sometimes called the "resurrection plant." At first glance, it could be a fern, a true moss, or a spike moss. In which combination of locations would one who is searching for the gametophytes of "flower of stone" have the best chance of finding them? 1. moist soil 2. underground, nourished there by symbiotic fungi 3. south-or west-facing slopes 4. permanently shady places 5. far from any flower of stone sporophytes

Find the characteristic polynomial of the matrix, using either a cofactor expansion or the special formula for 3x3 determinants. (Note: Finding the characteristic polynomial of a 3x3 matrix is not easy to do with just row operations, because the variable \lambda is involved.)\begin{bmatrix} \lambda & 1 & 1\\ -2 & \lambda -1\\ 0 & 7 & 0 \end{bmatrix}The characteristic polynomial is \boxed{} (Type an expression using \lambda as the variable.)

1. 1.5 and 10-year semi-annual compounded spot rates are currently 1.0%, 2.0%, and 2.5%. A hedge fund has the following portfolio: - Long $200M par, 1-year zeros - Short $500M par, 5-year zeros - Long $450M par, 10-year zeros a. Calculate the market value, duration, and convexity of this portfolio (use calculus or the numerical approach with Ai=0.001). b. Calculate the 3 partial durations of this portfolio (again use calculus or the numerical approach with Ai=0.001). Check that the sum of partials equals duration. It will be exact with calculus and very close with numerical methods.
