Question:
Copper can form two possible cations, cuprous (Cu+1) and cupric (Cu+2). When solid copper is reacted with a silver nitrate solution, two reactions are possible, as shown in the following equations: (a). AgNO3 (aq) + Cu (s) -> Ag (s) + CuNO3 (aq) Ag+1(aq) + Cu (s) -> Ag (s) + Cu+1 (aq) (b). 2 AgNO3 (aq) + Cu (s) -> 2 Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2 (aq) 2 Ag+1 (aq) + Cu (s) -> 2 Ag(s) + Cu+2 (aq) How many grams of metallic silver can form from 3.524 g of copper metal according to equation (a)?
Molar masses (g/mol):
Ag = 107.87
AgNO3 = 169.87
Cu = 63.55
Cu(NO3)2 = 187.56
CuNO3 = 125.55
