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.

Ca-Cl is an ionic bond. We know this because the difference between their electronegativities is 2.16.The electronegativity tells us which atom will attract the electron more than the other. Hence, chlorine attracts the electron a lot more than the calcium.A difference of more than 1.6 (or 1.7 depending on the source) implies that the electrons are so unevenly shared, that the bond is ionic, rather than polar covalent.
When calcium reacts with water, the temperature changes from 18c to 39c is an exothermic reaction as energy is releasing and increasing the temperature.
<h3>What is an exothermic reaction?</h3>
Exothermic reaction are those reactions in which energy is released when a reaction completes.
An example is burning of wood.
Thus, when calcium reacts with water, the temperature changes from 18c to 39c is an exothermic reaction as energy is releasing and increasing the temperature.

Iron III Chloride has a chemical formula of FeCl₃, while ammonium hydroxide has a chemical formula of NH₄OH.
The <em>balanced equation</em> would be:
FeCl₃ (aq) + 3 NH₄OH (aq) → Fe(OH)₃ (s) + 3 NH₄Cl (aq)
The precipitate is Fe(OH)₃ or iron iii hydroxide.
To find the <em>complete ionic equation</em>, dissociate the compounds in aqueous phases into their ionic forms:
Fe³⁺ + Cl⁻ + NH₄⁺ + 3 OH⁻ --> Fe(OH)₃(s) + NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻
To find the <em>net ionic equation</em>, cancel out like ions that appear both in the reactant and product side:
Fe³⁺ + 3 OH⁻ --> Fe(OH)₃
Answer:
43.7
