Answer:
I don't understand what to do with this
i am pretty sure it would be a chemical change so A
Answer:
Cd(s) + AgNO₃(aq) → Cd(NO₃)₂ (aq) + Ag(s)
Oxidized: Cd
Reduced: Ag
Explanation:
Cd(s) + AgNO₃(aq) → Cd(NO₃)₂ (aq) + Ag(s)
Cd → Cd²⁺ + 2e⁻ Half reaction oxidation
1e⁻ + Ag⁺ → Ag Half reaction reduction
Ag changed oxidation number from +1 to 0
Cd changed oxidation number from 0 to +2
Let's ballance the electrons
( Cd → Cd²⁺ + 2e⁻ ) .1
( 1e⁻ + Ag⁺ → Ag ) .2
Cd + 2e⁻ + 2Ag⁺ → 2Ag + Cd²⁺ + 2e⁻
Finally the ballance equation is:
Cd(s) + 2AgNO₃(aq) → Cd(NO₃)₂ (aq) + 2Ag(s)
Absorption occurs when photons from incident light hit atoms and molecules and cause them to vibrate. The more an object's molecules move and vibrate, the hotter it becomes. This heat is then emitted from the object as thermal energy.
