Silver has only 1 valence electron.
The electron configuration of Silver gives one outer shell electron, basically a valence electron.
Hey there!:
Copper plating on Zinc will occur via this simple reaction:
Cu²⁺ + 2 e⁻ ⇌ Cu
When a species gains electron, it is reduced. Its oxidation state is decreased. For example, in the above reaction Cu2+ gained 2 electron to get reduced to Cu. Its oxidation state changed from +2 to 0. Hence it is a reduction reaction.
So, the correct answer is :
The copper II ions gain two electrons and are reduced.
Answer B

Explanation:
Monatomic ions:
These ions consist of only one atom. If they have more than one atom then they are poly atomic ions.
Examples of Mono Atomic ions: 
Part A:
For P:
Phosphorous (P) has 15 electrons so it require 3 more electrons to stabilize itself.
Charge is 
Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

Part B:
For Mg:
Magnesium (Mg) has 12 electrons so it requires 2 electrons to lose to achieve stable configuration.
Charge is 
Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

Part C:
For Se:
Selenium (Se) has 34 electrons and requires two electrons to be stable.
Charge is 
Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

Answer: True
It is true that entropy is greater at higher trophic levels compared to the lower levels. The amount of energy and entropy in a certain food chain varies between trophic level. It specifically increases from one trophic level to another.
