Explanation:
Reaction:
Cu + 2AgC₂H₃O₂ → Cu(C₂H₃O₂)₂ + 2Ag
The problem is to split the reaction into oxidation and reduction halves:
The oxidation half is the sub-reaction that undergoes oxidation
The reduction half is the one that undergoes reduction:
The ionic equation:
Cu + 2Ag⁺ + 2C₂H₃O₂⁻ → Cu²⁺ + 2C₂H₃O₂⁻ + 2Ag
Oxidation half:
Cu → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻
Reduction half:
2Ag⁺ + 2e⁻ → 2Ag
C₂H₃O₂⁻ is neither oxidized nor reduced in the reaction.

<span>If thermal energy (heat) must be added to a chemical reaction in order for the reaction to take place, the reaction is endothermic. </span>
To calculate the average mass of the element, we take the summation of the product of the isotope and the percent abundance. In this case, the equation becomes 186.207=187*0.626+185*x where x is the percent abundance of 185. The answer is 0.374 or 37.4%. This can also be obtained by 100%-62.6%= 37.4%.
The subscriot 2 means that in the formula there are two parts of K, and the subscript 1 (implicit) for S, indicates that there is one part of S.
This is, the formula gives the ratio of the elements K and S in the compound, which is:
2 atoms of K : 1 atom of S.
Answer: there are 2 atoms of K and 1 atom of S in a molecule of K2S.
