• 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

Definitions:

Relative Change

The measure of change in a variable relative to its initial value, often expressed as a percentage.

Inelastic

Describes a situation where the quantity demanded or supplied of a good or service changes by a relatively small amount in response to changes in its price.

Quantity Demanded

The amount of a product or service consumers are willing and able to buy at a given price over a specified period of time.

Unit Elasticity

Demand or supply for which the elasticity coefficient is equal to 1; means that the percentage change in the quantity demanded or quantity supplied is equal to the percentage change in price.
