Answer : Option c) the rate at which one currency is traded for another
The nominal exchange rate basically shows how much of foreign currency you can buy using home currency.
Let's say for example : 1 unit of Foreign Currency (F) = 20 units of Home currency (H)
That is ; 1F = 20H
Then this means than one unit of Foreign currency can be exchanged for 20 units of Home currency or the other way round that is 20 units of Home currency can be exchanged for 1 unit of Foreign currency.
Thus this is the concept of nominal exchange rate.
