Question

I really need these solved, it’s asking for half equations!!

Answer 1

Answer:

Net equation: Cu + 2Ag+  ⇒ 2Ag + Cu2+

Explanation:

Cu + 2N03- + 2Ag+ ⇒ 2Ag + 2NO3- + Cu2+

The 2NO3- cancel out since they're spectator ions

∴ Cu + 2Ag+ ⇒ 2Ag + Cu2+

Half equations are:

Cu ⇒ Cu2+

2Ag+ ⇒ 2Ag

Balancing both sides of each equation with electrons will lead back to the Net equation.
