Assignment:
Balance the following equation:
Cu(s)+ AgNO3(aq) = Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)
("s" and "aq" in parantheses refers to the phase of the reactants and products, i.e. solid and aqueous, respectively.)
What is the amount of Cu (in grams) necessary to precipitate 0.50 g of Ag in the presence of excess AgNO3?
Provide complete and step by step solution for the question and show calculations and use formulas.
