Explanation:

binding energy, amount of energy required to separate a particle from a system of particles or to disperse all the particles of the system. Binding energy is especially applicable to subatomic particles in atomic nuclei, to electrons bound to nuclei in atoms, and to atoms and ions bound together in crystals.

AgNO₃ will act as the oxidising agent.

<h3><u>For the given chemical equation:</u></h3>

Cu + 2AgNO₃ → 2Ag + Cu(NO₃)₂

Half reactions for the given chemical reaction:

<u>Reducing agent:</u>

Cu → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻

Copper is a reducing agent because it is losing 2 electrons, which causes an oxidation process.

<u>Oxidising Agent</u>:

Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag

The silver ion undergoes a reduction process and is regarded as an oxidizing agent since it is acquiring one electron per atom.

Hence, AgNO₃ is considered as an oxidizing agent and therefore the correct answer is Option B.

<h3><u>Oxidising and Reducing agents</u></h3>

An oxidizing agent is a substance that reduces itself after oxidizing another material. It passes through a reduction process in which it obtains electrons and the substance's oxidation state is decreased.
A reducing agent is a chemical that oxidizes after reducing another material. It passes through an oxidation process in which it loses electrons and the substance's oxidation state increases.
