question 28

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is the correct net ionic equation for the redox reaction between nickel ion and metallic silver and the correct direction that is favored? The half reactions are:
Ag⁺ + e^-
Ag(s) Ni²⁺ + 2e^-
Ni(s) Ag⁺ is a stronger oxidizing agent than Ni²⁺.

• A)Ni²⁺(aq)+ Ag(s)+ e^- Ni(s)+ Ag⁺ (aq)forward
• B)Ni²⁺(aq)+ Ag(s)+ e^- Ni(s)+ Ag⁺(aq)reverse
• C)Ni²⁺(aq)+ Ag(s) Ni(s)+ 2 Ag⁺(aq)reverse
• D)Ni²⁺(aq)+ 2 Ag(s) Ni(s)+ 2 Ag⁺(aq)forward
• E)Ni²⁺(aq)+ 2 Ag(s) Ni(s)+ 2 Ag⁺(aq)reverse
