Question

What happens to the solid copper and the aqueous silver from the silver nitrate solution during the course of the reaction?

A) The copper changed from an aqueous ion form to a solid, metallic state. The metallic silver from the silver nitrate solution became aqueous ions.

B) The copper changed from a solid, metallic, unreacted state to and aqeuous ion form. The metallic silver from the silver nitrate solution became aqueous ions.

C) The copper changed from a solid, metallic, unreacted state to an aqueous ion form. The aqueous silver ions from the silver nitrate solution became solid, metallic silver.

D) The copper changed from an aqueous ion form to a solid, metallic state. The aqueous silver ions from the silver nitrate solution became solid, metallic silver.

Answer 1

Answer: C) The copper changed from a solid, metallic, unreacted state to an aqueous ion form. The aqueous silver ions from the silver nitrate solution became solid, metallic silver.
