need help with this For the equation Ag + NO3 -->Ag + + NO?

Question

(Note: This reaction takes place in an acidic solution.)

Step 1: What substance is reduced? NO

Step 2: What substance is oxidized? Ag

Step 3: What is the half reaction for oxidation?

Step 4: What is the half reaction for reduction?

Step 5: What is the net balanced equation?

Step 6: What is the reduced equation?

Answer 1

Step 1 : NO3-
Step 2 : Ag
Step 3 : 3(Ag ===> Ag + 1e)
Step 4 : N+5 + 3 e ===> N+2
You should be able to finish from here...
Notice that you must have the same number of electrons in oxidation as in reduction. (Do not forget that there are 3 NO3- ions that do not change)

Answer 2

Step 1: What substance is reduced?
Answer = NO3 -.
